North Korea just fired another ballistic missile into the sea — its second test in under a week — as U.S.-South Korea joint drills loom. The launch, from Wonsan early Wednesday, comes right before the Ulchi Freedom Shield exercises begin August 17th, sparking renewed tension. North Korea views the drills as invasion rehearsals and claims they’re pushing it to bolster its nuclear arsenal — a stance the U.S. and South Korea firmly reject as purely defensive. This latest move follows a brief pause in missile tests after diplomatic efforts stalled in 2019, and regional allies are now on high alert, sharing intel to track the escalating threat.
