Attack in South Korea: North Korea launches missile, ballistic missile from east coast

Attack in South Korea: North Korea has once again fired a missile at South Korea. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the launch took place on Sunday morning, but gave no further details.

Three days after the launch, North Korea said it tested a solid-fuel motor for a new strategic weapon. He said that this is a development that could allow it to detect more intercontinental ballistic missiles and we can reach the US mainland. 

In recent months, North Korea has tested a barrage of nuclear-capable ballistic missiles, including last month its developmental, longest-range, liquid-fueled Hwasong-17 ICBM designed to carry multiple warheads has gone.

Some experts say that North Korea will eventually use an expanded arsenal to seek sanctions relief and other concessions from the United States. 

Seoul's military said North Korea launched an "unidentified ballistic missile" on Sunday, hours after Pyongyang announced it had successfully test-fired a solid-fuel motor. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said, North Korea fired an unidentified ballistic missile into the East Sea.
