North Korea Fires Cruise Missiles into Yellow Sea Amid Escalating Tensions

North Korea launched several cruise missiles into the Yellow Sea following two recent weapons tests.

The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) confirmed the launches occurred around 7 am, with limited details provided, as per Yonhap news.

In a statement, the JCS emphasized increased monitoring and coordination with the U.S. for any further North Korean provocations.

These launches mark the first since September 2023, when North Korea tested two long-range strategic cruise missiles, simulating nuclear warheads, in the same region.

The tests follow North Korea’s firing of a solid-fuel intermediate-range ballistic missile with a hypersonic warhead into the East Sea, the first this year.

North Korean state media KCNA reported a test last week of an “underwater nuclear weapon system,” a response to joint naval exercises by the U.S., South Korea, and Japan. KCNA claimed these exercises threatened North Korea’s security, prompting the test of the Haeil-5-23 system in the East Sea of Korea.

Early last year, North Korea tested an underwater nuclear attack drone, which it claimed could create a radioactive tsunami.

Relations between the Koreas have recently worsened, with both sides abandoning key agreements, increasing border security, and conducting live-fire drills.

Kim Jong Un recently labelled South Korea as North Korea’s primary enemy, disbanded reunification-focused agencies, and warned of war for any territorial breach.
