Nuclear war fears as North Korea fires ballistic missile ahead of Kamala Harris visit

North Korea has reportedly fired a ballistic missile toward the sea off its east coast, South Korea has stated. The move comes days ahead of US Vice President Kamala Harris’s visit to the region.

The crucial information was shared by South Korea’s military which did not divulge more details about the missile.

Reuters reported that South Korea’s defense ministry provided no other details about the launch, but Japan’s Coast Guard reported that the missile apparently landed less than 10 minutes after it reported the launch.

Commercial satellite imagery of the Sinpho South Shipyard from September 18 reveals six barges and vessels gathered around the construction hall quay, suggesting that the North Koreans are preparing to launch a new submarine.

Background

Construction of what is believed to be a new ballistic missile submarine (SSB) began in early 2016. In 2019, Kim Jong Un visited the shipyard; images from his guidance visit raised questions about what the North Koreans were actually building—a new SSB or a modified ROMEO-class (or both)—but suggested construction was nearing completion. The parts yard adjacent to the construction halls has been empty since late summer of 2020, but so far there have been no indications in North Korean media about when the new submarine might be launched.
