On July 1, 2024, the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) reported that North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles towards the northeast sea area of the Korean Peninsula, with one landing near Sinuiju city and the other one suspected to have exploded in mid-air. The timing of the launch, shortly after the 'Freedom Edge' joint exercises between the U.S., Japan, and South Korea, suggests that North Korea may be using this missile launch to demonstrate against the alliance or to showcase missile capabilities to potential buyers like Russia. South Korea has strongly condemned the launches and plans to work with like-minded nations to maintain stability and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific region.
