South Korea accuses North Korea of ​​firing two more short-range ballistic missiles.

South Korean officials announced that North Korea launched two short-range missiles into the sea off its eastern coast on June 29.

According to AP, the official said the missile launch occurred just days after North Korea announced the successful test launch of its high-precision guided missile.

North Korean officials also added that the two missiles were launched from the city of Wonsan in Gangwon Province and were short-range Scud ballistic missiles.

Furthermore, North Korea's missile launch without establishing a no-fly zone for ships at sea is a clear act of provocation.

North Korea regularly conducts missile and artillery tests to improve its arsenal and express anger at joint actions by the United States and South Korea.

This latest missile launch by North Korea is believed to be in retaliation for South Korea's recent artillery test firing into the disputed waters between the two countries in the Yellow Sea.

Earlier, on June 27, North Korea announced that its leader, Kim Jong-un, had overseen the test launch of a high-precision guided missile.

It is very difficult to verify whether North Korea possesses such advanced weapons. North Korea often exaggerates its military capabilities, and its army, despite having the largest troop numbers in the world, is considered to possess only very outdated equipment.

Earlier this year, shortly after North Korean media issued strong statements protesting the joint military exercises between the US and South Korea, North Korea also conducted a series of missile and artillery launches, escalating tensions with South Korea.

North Korea emphasized that it views the aforementioned military exercises as preparation for an invasion of North Korea.
