Kim's Warning Missile “Fails Mid-Flight", North Korea Now Using Russian Satellite For TV Broadcast

North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles but one launch failed, South Korea's military said on July 1. This came a day after Pyongyang warned of "fatal consequences" following US-Japan-South Korea’s joint military exercises. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said the military had detected two launches 10 minutes apart. According to the South Korean official, the first missile flew 600 km and the second missile 120 km. JCS said the second missile appeared to fly abnormally in the early stage of the flight. Meanwhile, North Korea switched the transmission of state TV broadcasts to a Russian satellite from a Chinese one, South Korea said. This would make the monitoring of such broadcasts a challenge for the South's government agencies and media.
