North Korea says its latest missile launches were a simulation of “scorched earth” nuclear strikes on South Korea.
A TV screen shows images of North Korea's missile launch during a news program at the Seoul Railway Station in Seoul, South Korea, Thursday, Aug. 31, 2023. North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles toward the sea on Wednesday night, its neighbors said, hours after the U.S. flew long-range bombers for drills with its allies in a show of force against the North.
The North’s military said the missiles carried out their simulated strikes through air bursts, suggesting it confirmed the explosions of dummy warheads at a set altitude. The missile launches Wednesday were the latest in the North’s barrage of weapons tests since last year. South Korean and Japanese authorities said their warplanes conducted combined aerial drills with U.S. B-1B bombers respectively on Wednesday. South Korea’s Defense Ministry said that Wednesday’s B-1B deployment is the 10th flyover by U.S. bombers on the Korean Peninsula this year.
North Korea calls major U.S.-involved military drills on and near the Korean Peninsula as an invasion rehearsal.
