Reuters reports , informs Tsensor. NET with reference to "112 Ukraine".
In particular, US and South Korean intelligence found that missiles were being transported from the North Korean research missile complex in Sanum-Dong, which is in the northern part of Pyongyang. However, it is not specified when and where they were moved. This is about mid-range missiles Hwasong-12 or intercontinental ballistic missiles Hwasong-14. It is noted that the missile complex in Sanum-Doni was created for the production of intercontinental ballistic missiles.
The Ministry of Defense of South Korea could not confirm this data. However, officials have expressed concern that North Korea may conduct more provocative actions in connection with the anniversary of the founding of its Communist Party on October 10, or when the Communist Party Congress will take place in China on October 18.
Earlier, on September 11, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution imposing new sanctions against the DPRK.
At the same time, the US Department of the Treasury decided on September 26 to impose sanctions against eight North Korean banks, as well as 26 individuals representing them in different countries.
Recall that on September 3, Pyongyang announced a successful test of the hydrogen bomb. The order to conduct the test was given to the North Korean leader Kim Jong Yin. DPRK claims that the test of the hydrogen warfare did not lead to leakage of radiation or other negative effects on the environment.
The international community condemned the actions of North Korea. In particular, US President Donald Trump said Washington, in addition to strengthening sanctions against the DPRK, is considering ending trade relations with any country that cooperates with North Korea.
