Full story

North Korea launched a series of short-range ballistic missiles early Tuesday, Nov. 5, marking its second missile test since late October, and occurring mere hours before the U.S. presidential election. The latest launch follows North Korea’s recent test of an advanced intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), reportedly capable of reaching the U.S. mainland.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff reported that several of the North Korean missiles traveled approximately 250 miles before landing in waters east of the Korean Peninsula. The launch appears to be a direct response to recent U.S.-led military drills conducted over the weekend.

As part of those drills, the United States conducted joint exercises with South Korea and Japan, deploying a B-1B bomber alongside South Korean and Japanese fighter jets. The exercise, intended as a show of strength, was aimed at reinforcing regional readiness. North Korea swiftly condemned the drills as hostile.

Kim Yo Jong, sister and key spokesperson for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, described the trilateral exercise as showing the “most hostile and dangerous aggressive nature of the enemy toward our Republic.” Pyongyang characterized the drills as a rehearsal for invasion.

During a recent U.N. Security Council meeting, U.S. Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood condemned North Korea’s ongoing missile development. Wood accused Russia and China of enabling Pyongyang by blocking international accountability efforts.

Russian officials defended North Korea’s missile tests, framing them as a response to U.S. “provocations.” Moscow could also stand to benefit from North Korea’s testing, as Russia has become one of North Korea’s largest weapons buyers.

Meanwhile, South Korea has requested additional military support from the United States to bolster its defenses. Washington approved a military aid package worth nearly $5 billion, which includes early warning and control systems to enhance Seoul’s missile detection capabilities.
