North Korea has fired two ballistic missiles into the sea off its east coast, South Korea’s military says, hours after a U.S. nuclear-powered submarine arrived in a naval base in the South.
North Korea has reacted angrily, saying such a deployment could meet the criteria for its use of nuclear weapons.
The United States said it was consulting closely with its allies about the North Korean missile launches, which it described as being destabilizing. In a statement on Monday, the U.S. military added the launches posed no immediate threat to U.S. personnel and territory or to U.S. allies. Earlier on Monday, a nuclear-powered U.S. submarine entered a naval base in South Korea’s southern island of Jeju to load military supplies while on an unspecified operational mission, the South Korean navy said.after a nuclear-armed U.S. submarine arrived at a South Korean port for the first time since the 1980s.
