North Korea Fires Two Ballistic Missiles Again

Dubai – Masaader News

North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles, only days after it launched two similar missiles intended to pressure South Korea and the United States to stop upcoming military drills, according to Reuters.

The firings follow launches on July 25, North Korea’s first missile tests since leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. President Donald Trump met on June 30 and agreed to revive stalled denuclearization talks.

The series of missile tests raises the stakes for U.S. and South Korean diplomats criss-crossing the region this week in the hope of restarting talks aimed at persuading Pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs.
