Kim Jong Un and daughter oversee North Korea’s ICBM launch

by
Kim Jong
  • Kim Jong said North Korea would “react to nuclear weapons with nukes.”
  • South Korea and the United States staged major military drills.
  • The allies have ramped up defence cooperation in the face of growing military.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, accompanied by his daughter, personally oversaw the recent test-firing of the country’s most powerful intercontinental ballistic missile, state media images showed Friday.

The launch on Thursday — Pyongyang’s second ICBM test this year — involved a Hwasong-17 missile, the official Korean Central News Agency reported, adding that it was fired in response to “frantic” US-South Korea joint military drills.

Photographs in the official Rodong Sinmun newspaper showed Kim watching the black-and-white Hwasong-17 — dubbed a “monster missile” by analysts — blast off into the sky.

Some of the images showed him watching the launch with his daughter — never named by state media but identified as his second child Ju Ae by South Korean intelligence.

State media also released images showing the Earth from space, purportedly taken by a camera mounted on the ICBM.

KCNA said the launch “confirmed the war readiness of the ICBM unit”, adding that it “had no negative impact on the security” of neighbouring countries.

South Korea had previously said the missile was fired on a lofted trajectory — up instead of out, typically done to avoid overflying neighbouring countries.

Last year, North Korea declared itself an “irreversible” nuclear power, and Kim recently called for an “exponential” increase in weapons production, including tactical nukes.

Overseeing the Thursday launch, Kim said North Korea would “react to nuclear weapons with nukes” and called for “irreversibly bolstering up the nuclear war deterrent”, according to KCNA.

He also highlighted the country’s “rapid response posture… to cope with any armed conflict and war”, KCNA said.

ICBM threat

In theory, the Hwasong-17 ICBM can reach the continental United States, and with this latest launch, North Korea is trying to emphasise the advanced level of its weaponry, analysts said.

“With the photos of the Earth, Pyongyang seems to be trying to show that it can accurately hit any target the regime wants with its ICBM,” Cheong Seong-chang, a senior fellow at the Sejong Institute, told AFP.

The next step will likely be North Korea firing the missile “at a normal angle”, he said, which would demonstrate it can survive reentry into the atmosphere.

The Thursday launch — Pyongyang’s third show of force this week — came as Tokyo and Seoul sought to thaw long-frozen ties to counter an increasingly aggressive North Korea.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol flew to Japan Thursday to meet Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, the first such summit in 12 years.

North Korea fired two cruise missiles from a submarine on Sunday, followed by two short-range ballistic missiles on Thursday, as South Korea and the United States staged major military drills.

The allies have ramped up defence cooperation in the face of growing military and nuclear threats from North Korea, which has conducted a series of increasingly provocative banned weapons tests in recent months.

“The fact (that) North Korea has almost normalised ICBM tests over the last year is a concern,” Joseph Dempsey, a researcher at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, told AFP.

Soo Kim, a former CIA Korea analyst, said that Kim’s regime “has essentially desensitised the international community to its weapons tests,” she told AFP.

“We’ve reached a point where an ICBM test draws no greater attention than a short-range missile test,” she said.

“We’ll continue to see North Korea advancing and expanding its suite of weapons capabilities in the days to come.”

North Korea claims to launched cruise missiles and increased its threat to the US

by
North Korea
  • Kim Yo Jong warned Pyongyang would transform the Pacific into a “firing range” if the US continued drills.
  • The purpose of the Freedom Shield exercises is to strengthen South Korean and US defenses against North Korean missile and nuclear threats.
  • Such exercises have been denounced by North Korea as the start of an attack and nuclear conflict.

As South Korea and the US begin extensive military exercises, which have inflamed Pyongyang’s resentment, North Korea claimed it had launched two cruise missiles from a submarine and renewed its warning to “mercilessly punish” the US.

The government of Kim Jong Un claimed to have launched two strategic cruise missiles from a submarine off the east coast of the peninsula on Sunday. The missiles traveled 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) in figure-8 formation before hitting a target. Prior to the joint exercises, the so-called underwater launching exercise confirmed a North Korean “nuclear war deterrence means,” according to the country’s official Korean Central News Agency.

Although North Korea is not prohibited from testing cruise missiles by United Nations resolutions, the launch of the rockets from a submarine would represent a significant advancement in the country’s capacity to potentially deliver a nuclear weapon that could strike US bases in South Korea and Japan.

The launch was verified by South Korea’s Joint Chief of Staff, which announced on Monday that it had intercepted an “unidentified missile test” fired by a North Korean submarine. The US and South Korean intelligence agencies are carefully analyzing the exact specifications, according to the JCS statement.

The most recent launches are a continuation of North Korea’s recent barrage of missile launches, which also includes an intercontinental ballistic missile with a nuclear warhead capable of reaching the US territory. Additionally, it prepares the ground for a new escalation of tensions as the Freedom Shield drills between the US and South Korea take place from Monday through March 23.

Aiming to strengthen their defenses against North Korea’s nuclear and missile threats, the US-South Korean exercises are some of the biggest the two nations have conducted in recent years. North Korea has promised an unprecedented reaction, having long criticized such drills as the start of an invasion and nuclear conflict.

In a statement posted on KCNA on Monday, the North Korean Foreign Ministry condemned the exercises and attacked the US for preparing to criticize Pyongyang for its record on human rights.

The people of North Korea are prepared to “mercilessly punish the U.S. imperialists completely denying the sovereignty of our state and its socialist system and thus make them pay dearly without fail,” according to the statement.

Kim Yo Jong, the powerful sister of the leader, warned Pyongyang would transform the Pacific into a “firing range” if the US continued drills. The Kim regime has threatened unprecedented action in response to the drills.

Additionally, she gave a hint that the government might begin evaluating how well its warhead designs can survive the heat of reentering the atmosphere. Although North Korea has shown that its rockets are capable of reaching the US mainland, it is unclear whether the warheads would survive the flight.

The purpose of the Freedom Shield exercises is to strengthen South Korean and US defenses against North Korean missile and nuclear threats. Such exercises have been denounced by North Korea as the start of an attack and nuclear conflict.

Joint military exercises between South Korea and the US were resumed under President Yoon Suk Yeol, who assumed office in May of last year after Donald Trump had scaled them back or stopped them.

The former US president hoped that the action would help his nuclear talks with Kim Jong Un. However, nothing tangible came out of those negotiations to curtail Pyongyang’s nuclear program, which only grew more extensive as denuclearization negotiations stalled.

Yoon is also seeking to increase military cooperation between South Korea and Japan, a move that would be firmly opposed by North Korea, which counts Tokyo as one of its most dangerous foes.

North Korea may test-launch its new solid-fuel ICBMs as early as this month, according to intelligence provided last week to lawmakers in parliament by South Korea’s spy agency.

North Korea: Decides to use military deterrents offensively

by
North Korea
  • North Korea has decided to take “significant practical” war deterrence measures.
  • The decision was made at a meeting of the ruling party’s military commission.
  • All such drills enrage North Korea, which sees them as practise for an invasion.

North Korea has decided to take “significant practical” war deterrence measures, according to state media, a day before Seoul and Washington begin their largest joint military exercises in five years.

The decision was made at a meeting of the ruling party’s military commission presided over by Kim Jong Un, the country’s leader.

“The meeting discussed and adopted the important practical steps for making more effective, powerful and offensive use of the war deterrent,”.

The report stated that the move was made to “deal with the current situation in which the war provocations of the United States and South Korea have crossed the red line,” but did not elaborate on the measures.

The “Freedom Shield” exercises, scheduled to begin Monday, will focus on the “changing security environment” caused by North Korea’s redoubled aggression, according to the allies.

All such drills enrage North Korea, which sees them as practise for an invasion.

The country has stated that its nuclear and missile programmes are for self-defense.

Analysts believe North Korea will use the drills as an excuse to carry out more provocations, such as missile tests and possibly a nuclear test.

According to reports, Kim ordered North Korea’s military to ramp up preparations for a “real war” on Friday.

Kim told soldiers to be ready for “two strategic missions, that is, first to deter war and second to take the initiative in war” while inspecting a fire assault drill.

Washington and Seoul have increased defence cooperation in response to North Korea’s growing military and nuclear threats, which has conducted increasingly provocative banned weapons tests in recent months.

North Korea fires ballistic missile towards sea

by
North Korea
  • North Korea launched at least six short-range missiles.
  • About 28,000 American forces are stationed in South Korea.
  • The missiles fired in North Korea’s test on Thursday were launched into the Yellow Sea.

North Korea launched at least six short-range missiles on Thursday afternoon, analysts said, in what could be the first salvo in weeks of military displays on both sides of the demilitarised zone separating the two Koreas.

Photos distributed by state-run media, published photos of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un attending a fire drill for the Hwasong artillery unit on the western front on Friday.

“Kim Jong Un examined the actual war response posture of the 8th fire assault company under the unit charged with striking the enemy’s operation airport in the direction of the western front,” reported.

About 28,000 American forces are stationed in South Korea, where the US Air Force operates two major airfields: Osan, about 64 kilometres (40 miles) south of Seoul, and Kunsan, on the Yellow Sea coast in the country’s west.

The missiles fired in North Korea’s test on Thursday were launched into the Yellow Sea.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff reported shortly after the test that North Korea had fired a short-range ballistic missile from the Nampo area in the country’s west.

According to reports, Kim stated that artillery units should be ready for two missions: “first to deter war and second to take the initiative in war, by steadily intensifying various simulated drills for real war.”

The newspaper published several photos from the firing drill, including one of Kim Jong Un with his daughter and North Korean military officials. Kim’s daughter, believed to be named Ju Ae, has recently appeared alongside her father at major events in North Korea.

Pyongyang is conducting winter training, which is being monitored by US and South Korean intelligence agencies, according to a spokesman for South Korea’s Defense Ministry on Thursday.

“Training is usually held until March,” ministry spokesman Jeon Ha-kyu added.

On Monday, US, South Korean, and UN Command forces on the peninsula will begin the 11-day Freedom Shield exercises, which “will integrate elements of ‘live exercises’ with constructive simulations,” according to a statement issued by US Forces Korea last week.

Warrior Shield field training exercises will take place at the same time, according to the statement.

Meanwhile, the United States and South Korea have been conducting regular air exercises. According to USFK, a US B-52 bomber was escorted by South Korean fighter jets this week as it flew into the South’s air defence identification zone.

The US-South Korean exercises are expected to be the largest in years, after the two allies scaled back such military displays in 2017 when then-US President Donald Trump attempted to offer an opening for North Korea to negotiate an end to its long-range missile and nuclear weapons programmes.

That window has long since closed, with North Korea conducting a record number of missile tests last year while promising to expand its nuclear programme to arm the missiles.

In 2023, North Korean missile testing has slowed, but tensions on the Korean Peninsula remain high.

Analysts see little reason to believe that things will improve.

“This is likely only the beginning of a series of provocative tests by North Korea,” Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ehwa Womans University in Seoul, said of Thursday’s missile firings.

“Pyongyang is poised to respond aggressively to major US-South Korea defense exercises, as well as to President Yoon’s upcoming summits with (Japanese) Prime Minister (Fumio) Kishida and (US) President (Joe) Biden.”

“The Kim regime may order missile firings of longer ranges, attempt a spy satellite launch, demonstrate a solid-fuel engine, and perhaps even conduct a nuclear test,” Easley said.

N. Korea hurls more missiles amid Pacific ‘firing range’ threats

by
North Korea
  • North Korea launched two more ballistic missiles off its east coast.
  • The launches came only days after North Korea launched an (ICBM).
  • Kim’s sister, Yo-Jong, warned against the increased presence of U.S. strategic military assets.

North Korea threatened to transform the Pacific into a “firing range” on Monday after launching two more ballistic missiles off its east coast.

The launches came only days after North Korea launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the sea off Japan’s west coast, leading the US to conduct joint air exercises with South Korea and Japan on Sunday.

Following the launches, Kim Yo-jong, the powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, warned US forces to halt military exercises.

Meanwhile, North Korea’s state media announced that two projectiles were launched from a multiple rocket launcher, aimed at targets 395 kilometers (245 miles) and 337 kilometers (209 miles) away, respectively.

Capable of “paralyzing”

“The 600mm multiple rocket launcher mobilized in the firing … is a means of a tactical nuclear weapon,” capable of “paralyzing” an enemy airfield.

The two missiles, launched about 10 p.m. GMT, reached a maximum height of around 100 kilometers and 50 kilometers, respectively, before falling beyond Japan’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ).

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said he has called an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council over the tests, and the Jiji news agency said the meeting was scheduled for 8 p.m. GMT Monday.

Nevertheless, given Russia and China’s earlier vetoes during the Ukraine crisis and a Sino-US rivalry over Chinese balloons discovered in the US sky, the odds for a new round of UN penalties are bleak.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff of South Korea strongly condemned the launches as a “grave provocation” that should be stopped immediately.

Seoul’s foreign ministry imposed penalties on four individuals and five businesses tied to Pyongyang’s weapons program on Monday in reaction to the North’s latest ICBM and missile tests, calling it the country’s quickest response to the North’s provocations.

“Our government has made it clear that North Korea’s provocations will not go unchecked. Its repeated provocations will strengthen Seoul’s deterrence and tighten the global sanctions network “In a statement, the ministry stated.

The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command said the latest launch did not pose an immediate threat but highlighted the “destabilizing impact” of North Korea’s unlawful weapons programs.

U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric urged Pyongyang to “immediately desist from taking any further provocative actions” banned under Security Council resolutions, and resume denuclearization dialogue.

Rising tensions

Kim’s sister, Yo-Jong, warned against the increased presence of U.S. strategic military assets following the joint air drills with its Asian allies over the weekend.

“The frequency of using the Pacific as our firing range depends upon the U.S. forces’ action character,” she said in a statement carried by KCNA.

The United States and South Korea are set to hold simulated nuclear tabletop exercises aimed at improving operations of American nuclear assets this week, as well as annual springtime Freedom Shield field training in March.

Pyongyang’s foreign ministry said last week it would respond to the planned exercises with “unprecedentedly persistent, strong counteractions.”

“Tension on the peninsula is likely to reach its peak in coming months as North Korea is accelerating its military actions with higher frequency, and her statement indicates that it would continue impromptu missile tests using the Pacific as its shooting range,” said Yang Moo-jin, a professor at the University of North Korean Studies in Seoul.

According to Hong Min, a senior expert at the South Korean Institute for National Unification, Kim’s reference of the Pacific suggests the North will launch additional long-range missiles on a regular basis.

The North’s missile launch on Monday marks its third known weapons test this year, following an unprecedented number of missile launches last year, including ICBMs capable of striking anywhere in the United States.

Yo-Jong also called certain South Korean academics “disgusting” and “dumb” for questioning the reliability of the ICBM capacity, claiming Saturday’s “sudden” test required nine hours of preparation.

The launch took place “at the most appropriate time” considering weather conditions and after U.S. and South Korean scout planes went away, she said.

“They had better rack their brains to take measures to defend themselves, instead of doubting or worrying about other’s technology,” she said.

“We affirm once again that there is no change in our will to make the worst maniacs escalating the tensions pay the price for their action.”

Kim Jong Un’s wife spotted wearing a “missile’ necklace at the event

by
Kim Jong Un
  • Kim Jong Un’s wife wore a pendant in the form of a rocket.
  • The silver necklace stole the show.
  • Kim Ju Ae sported a black and white suit with a brooch to the event.

At the KPA’s 75th anniversary celebration on Tuesday in Pyongyang, Ri Sol Ju, Kim Jong Un’s wife, wore a pendant in the form of a rocket. According to a report in The Telegraph, the silver necklace stole the show because it resembled North Korea’s heaviest intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), the Hwasong-17 ICBM.

Daughter Kim Ju Ae sported a black and white suit with a brooch to the event, while Kim went for a black coat and fedora. At the banquet table before the massive military parade, Sol Ju was caught flashing the “nuke necklace,” surrounded by her husband, daughter, and military brass.

During the week’s military parades, the dictator of North Korea’s daughter, who is thought to be nine or ten years old, was the centre of attention, igniting discussion about the potential next leader of the country. Ju Ae, who was making her fifth known public appearance, mingled with senior officers while her father displayed his record-breaking military prowess. Although she has frequently been referred to as the “loving daughter” in state media, some experts think that Kim is strategically using her to enhance his reputation as a “family man.” According to the article, Kim’s nuclear arsenal’s newest weaponry, including the actual Hwasong-17 and an ICBM with purportedly all-new solid fuel, were on display at the Wednesday parade.

Rumors regarding Kim’s health were rampant before to the display of strength since he had been’missing’ from the public eye for more than a month. NK News, a South Korean news source, reported that Kim had also missed a politburo meeting three times.

North Korea’s large military parade was held on Thursday despite a deepening food and economic crises, which was denounced by South Korea’s foreign ministry.

North Korea behind $100m crypto theft, FBI says

by
FBI
  • North Korean cyber actors used the privacy protocol Railgun to launder more than $60 million.
  • A blockchain bridge was used to transfer cryptocurrencies between different blockchain networks.
  • Cyberattacks increased by 40% between 2020 and 2021.

According to US law enforcement, North Korean hackers were responsible for the theft of $100 million in digital assets from a US crypto firm last year.

The cyber heist on crypto firm Harmony was carried out last June by North Korean hacking groups Lazarus Group and APT38, according to a statement issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on Monday.

According to the FBI, North Korean cyber actors used the privacy protocol Railgun earlier this month to launder more than $60 million in Ethereum stolen during the heist, a portion of which was sent to several virtual asset service providers and converted to Bitcoin.

Harmony, based in California, announced in June that hackers had stolen $100 million in digital coins from Horizon bridge, a so-called blockchain bridge used to transfer cryptocurrencies between different blockchain networks.

The FBI, which had previously issued an advisory about a malware campaign used in the “TraderTraitor” heist, said it had frozen some of the funds with the help of some of the virtual asset service providers.

The FBI would continue to work to “identify and disrupt”

In attempts to steal and launder cryptocurrency to fund the secretive state’s illicit missile and nuclear weapons programs.

“The FBI will continue to expose and combat the DPRK’s use of illicit activities, including cybercrime and virtual currency theft, to generate revenue for the regime,” the FBI said, referring to the country’s official name, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

North Korea, led by third-generation dictator Kim Jong Un, has been accused by US and UN officials of orchestrating an escalating cyber theft campaign to fund its activities, which include the development of long-range ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.

South Korea’s spy agency reported in December that North Korean hackers had stolen an estimated 1.5 trillion South Korean won ($1.2 billion) in virtual assets over the previous five years, including 800 billion South Korean won ($650.5 million) in 2022 alone.

According to a report released in January last year by blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis, the value of assets stolen in North Korea-linked cyberattacks increased by 40% between 2020 and 2021.

Last month, Google’s anti-hacking unit revealed that North Korean hackers used South Korea’s deadly Halloween crowd crush to target internet users with malware planted in documents disguised as South Korean government reports.

The US Department of Justice charged three North Korean computer programmers in 2021 with extorting or stealing more than $1.3 billion in cash and cryptocurrency in a series of cyberattacks that began in 2014.

North Korea, which typically does not engage with international media, has denied carrying out cyberattacks overseas and accused the US and its allies of “spreading ill-hearted rumors”.
