"North Korea has launched a pair of ballistic missiles into the Sea of Japan on Tuesday, sparking renewed fears of a widespread nuclear conflict in Asia. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff revealed that the short-range missiles were fired from a site near North Korea's capital, Pyongyang, at 3.50pm local time (1.50am ET). Each of the missiles flew for approximately 217 miles before landing in the sea without further incident. No injuries or damages have been reported by North Korea's neighbors."
"The launch reportedly tested the totalitarian dictatorship's KN-25 short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs), which have an estimated range of 250 miles and could potentially strike targets within South Korea, a US ally. North Korea has claimed that this type of short-range rocket is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead, and US scientists believe it could be powerful enough to deliver widespread destruction in large cities for several miles."
