North Korea fired an unidentified launch vehicle at dawn today.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff pointed out, "North Korea fired two unmanned launch vehicles from the Wonsan area at 5:34 am and 5:57 am, and the flight distance is about 430km."

Currently, our military is keeping a good preparedness while keeping track of related trends in preparation for additional launches.

It was only 78 days after the launch of the short - range missile on May 9th that North Korea provoked it as a launch vehicle.

In May, the intelligence community concluded that the missile was a short-range missile after 20 days of analysis.

Hanmi also went into precise analysis of the North Korean launch vehicle launched today.

After the North American summit in Panmunjom, North Korea's negotiations have not progressed, and it is said that it is intended to raise bargaining power again.

Earlier, North Korea announced its intention to refrain from the US military exercise on rice aid, which the Korean government had been promoting through international organizations, and has publicly revealed some of the new submarines through official media.
