Posted in: Japan,North Korea,United States
SOMETHING REALLY MUST BE DONE ABOUT KIM JONG UN AND NOW!
As reported at the BBC, North Korea has fired a second ballistic missile across Japan. The tensions in the region are at an all time high as the North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has continuously made matters worse with his endless testing of ballistic missiles and hydrogen bombs. Kim Jong Un continues his defiance. Something needs to be done to stop this rogue dictator, and now. There have been no confirmed deaths.
North Korea has fired a ballistic missile across Japan, creating new tension in the region after its nuclear bomb test less than two weeks ago.
The missile reached an altitude of about 770km (478 miles), travelling 3,700km before landing in the sea off Hokkaido, South Korea’s military says.
It flew higher and further than one fired over Japan late last month.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said his country would “never tolerate” such “dangerous provocative action”.
South Korea responded within minutes by firing two ballistic missiles into the sea in a simulated strike on the North.
US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson also condemned the launch and the UN Security Council will meet later on Friday in New York at the request of the United States and Japan.
