North Korean Test of Ballistic Missile Unsuccessful– S. Korean Military
04:46 GMT 09.07.2016 (Updated: 04:54 GMT 09.07.2016) North Korean test of a submarine launched ballistic missile carried out earlier on Saturday was unsuccessful, South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said as quoted by Japanese media.
TOKYO (Sputnik) – South Korean military said that after the launch the missile failed to continue its flight along its normal trajectory, which means that the test was unsuccessful, Kyodo News reported.
The launch was said to have been carried out at around 02:30 GMT.
Tensions over North Korea's nuclear and ballistic missile programs escalated after Pyongyang said on January 6 that it had successfully carried out a hydrogen bomb test and put a satellite into orbit on February 7. The moves violated UN Security Council resolutions, prompting the United Nations to impose new sanctions on the North.
On June 22, North Korea claimed it had successfully tested a missile that traveled about 250 miles before dropping into the Sea of Japan. US and South Korean officials said two missiles were fired and that one missile failed.
