NOTE: North Korean officials have been dealing with coronavirus, which they blame
on the South.

Listen to this article - 0:00 / 1:45 1X - BeyondWords:
North Korea fired two cruise missiles from the west coast town of Onchon early on Wednesday, a South Korean military source said.

The source added the South Korean and the United States military authorities are analysing details of the missiles' flight, including the range.

The launches come a day after Seoul and Washington kicked four days of preliminary joint drills in preparation for the long-suspended live field training Ulchi Freedom Shield, which takes place from Aug. 22 to Sept. 1.

SOUTH KOREA DETECTS SHOTS APPARENTLY LAUNCHED BY NORTH KOREA

The two allies have scaled back combined military drills in recent years because of COVID-19 and to lower tensions with the North, which has accused the exercises of being a rehearsal for invasion.

Meanwhile, Pentagon on Tuesday said the U.S., South Korea and Japan participated in a ballistic missile defence exercise off Hawaii's coast last week – the first such drills since 2017 as relations between Seoul and Tokyo hit their lowest in years.

While Pyongyang has not conducted a missile test for two months, it had battled against a COVID-19 outbreak for months before declaring victory over the virus last week. The North, however, has been observed preparing for a possible nuclear test, which would be its first since 2017.

In a separate news release made by the North on Thursday, the sister of its leader Kim Jong Un blamed propaganda leaflets from South Korea found near the border for causing the coronavirus outbreak and vowed a "deadly retaliation" against the South.

Despite such warnings, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol on Wednesday reiterated that he is willing to provide phased economic aid to North Korea if it ended nuclear weapons development and began denuclearization, as he took questions during a news conference to mark his first 100 days in office.

[How this goes over has yet to be agreed on]. Despite such warnings, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol on Wednesday reiterated that he is willing to provide phased economic aid to North Korea if it ended nuclear weapons development - and began denuclearization, as he took questions during a news conference to mark his first 100 days in office.

Personal note: Kim will be damned if he will cease his nuclear weapons. He's itching
for something to start. This up and down crap with Kim /China & Russia won't go on
but for a short time. After which someone will yell uncle to the wants and needs of
the others. Neither side really want to nuke one-another - yet - they don't want to
loose face within their countries either. It would be a bad sign of weakness to one
of the leaders to back away from launching. If one goes - they all go! And it will
be HELL on Earth from that point on! God Help Us All if & when - it goes!
