South Korean media say North Korea has fired what appears to be a ballistic missile from a submarine toward the sea.
The report comes just hours after North Korean newspaper Rodong Sinmun published a statement saying South Korean President Park Geun-Hye should make her "funeral shroud."
The United Nations imposed a set of new and stronger sanctions on North Korea in response to Pyongyang's fourth nuclear test in January, and a ballistic missile test the following month.

US warns North Korea over latest missile test...
ReplyDeleteNorth Korea's test Saturday of what appeared to be a submarine-launched ballistic missile was "a clear violation" of UN Security Council resolutions, the United States said, warning it was watching intently.
The missile flew 30 kilometers (18 miles) but the launch in the Sea of Japan was believed to have failed, the South Korean defense ministry said.
"We closely monitor North Korean activities and the situation on the Korean peninsula, especially North Korean military activities," US State Department spokesman John Kirby said in a statement.
"Launches using ballistic missile technology are a clear violation of multiple UN Security Council resolutions.
"We call on North Korea to refrain from actions that further destabilize the region and focus instead on taking concrete steps toward fulfilling its commitments and international obligations.".....i24news.tv
