Heads Up: North Korean Ballistic Missile Explodes in Failed Test
North Korea attempted to test a ballistic missile early Saturday that failed shortly after launch, South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency reports.
The test, according to the South Korean military, was carried out in the South Pyeongan Province at approximately 5:30 a.m.
“North Korea fired an unidentified missile from a site in the vicinity of Bukchang in Pyeongannam-do (South Pyeongan Province) in the northeastern direction at around 5:30 a.m today,” the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. “It is estimated to have failed.”
According to U.S. officials speaking with NBC News, the failed test involved a “short-range, non-nuclear missile” capable of reaching Seoul.
The attempted launch comes just one day after President Donald Trump, in an interview published by Reuters Thursday, said a “major, major conflict” was possible with North Korea.

“There is a chance that we could end up having a major, major conflict with North Korea. Absolutely,” Trump said. “We’d love to solve things diplomatically but it’s very difficult.”
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson similarly asserted Friday at the United Nations that “catastrophic consequences” could result if North Korea’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs continued.
A senior Trump official speaking on condition of anonymity Wednesday told reporters outside a classified briefing at the White House that “military preparations” are also underway.
“What you see is a really an integrated effort to prioritize diplomatic and informational aspects of national power, but also what you’ll see soon is using the economic dimension of national power as well as the military preparations that are underway,” the official said.
The failed test, the second this month, follows North Korea’s largest ever live-fire military drill held Tuesday for the 85th anniversary of the regime’s army.
South Korea similarly conducted a live-fire military drill with the United States Wednesday just 15 miles from the North Korean border.
China, who has been increasingly pressured by the Trump administration to stifle North Korea’s nuclear ambitions, also said Thursday that it would conduct live-fire drills and test new weapons in response to the deployment of THAAD, the U.S. anti-missile defense system, in South Korea.

Sounds like they’re not exactly “Rocket Scientists” !!! Maybe we’ll get lucky and Little Kim and company will just accidentally blow themselves up testing one of their “High Grade” super nukes !!!
Thats two in a row that have blown up during launch so Kim needs to do a lot more testing if you beleive what comes out from the US puppets in the south who have not provided any data from the last missile going bang.
Maybe Kim needs to tell the USA that he will attack them for testing missiles
Nice “live-fire military drill ” by the north, almost as big as the drills that goes on in the south that also involves the USA 6,000 miles away from home so this must be Trump putting americans first because we all know now that he’s a man of his word don’t we now.
Anyway where are all the aircrat carriers puppet trump sent over because they seem to have got lost somewhere
