North Korea reportedly conducted a launch of strategic cruise missiles

According to a report by the Korean Central News Agency, as cited by Yonhap, a missile unit belonging to the Korean People’s Army stationed in the western regions executed launch drills on Wednesday morning.

North Korea’s recent action occurred in anticipation of a significant spring military exercise jointly held by South Korea and the United States, scheduled to commence next month.

North Korea has consistently criticized the joint military exercises conducted by Seoul and Washington, labeling them as preparation for an invasion. However, both South Korea and the United States maintain that these drills are purely defensive measures.
