North Korea again tested its missile arsenal on Monday, launching three missiles that US Strategic Command said did not pose any threat. STRATCOM tracked the launch of three missiles—at 3:44 p.m., 3:58 p.m., and 4:35 p.m. Central Daylight Time, including what was presumed to be two Scud tactical ballistic missiles and a No Dong intermediate range ballistic missile near Hwangju, the command said in a statement. North Korea has conducted several test launches recently, including a submarine missile launch on July 11 and two intermediate range ballistic missiles in June. The US and South Korea on July 7 agreed to deploy a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense missile system on the Korean Peninsula, and a joint working group of the two countries are determining where the optimal deployment site will be.
