North Korea staged a nuclear strike drill on South Korea in protest of the country’s military drills conducted with the United States in the surrounding region, state outlet KCNA reported Thursday.
North Korea fired two ballistic missiles into the sea on Wednesday night in a vision of how the country could eventually launch a nuclear strike against South Korea, according to KCNA. The drill came in response to U.S. and South Korea joint military drills that are being conducted around the region, which North Korea has aggressively denounced since they began.
North Korea’s plan would be to launch a nuclear strike against South Korea and subsequently occupy “the whole territory of the southern half” during the fallout, Reuters reported Thursday. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un observed military drills on Tuesday that aimed to simulate disruption of international intervention and conduct strike drills against key military command centers in South Korea.
“These [drills] pose threats to peace and stability of not only our country, but of the region and international community, and cannot be tolerated,” Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told reporters Thursday, according to Reuters.
Japan said it would intercept future missile launches if the rockets flew over the country’s island, Reuters reported. South Korea’s presidential office assembled a security meeting Wednesday night following the missile launch.

North Korea failed a second rocket launch attempt that aimed to put a spy satellite in orbit last week. The country’s leadership was unfazed by the failure and vowed to try again in October.
The State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Today’s ruling elites champion policies every previous generation of Americans would have regarded as outright evil. At the top of that list would be the supremely radioactive issue – illuminated by the hit summer film “Sound of Freedom” – of the widespread trafficking and sexual slavery of children, as well as the shocking prevalence of pedophiles in the United States of America. Indeed, the U.S. is the largest market for child sexual abuse in the world.
According to Tim Ballard, who has led many missions rescuing sex-trafficked children around the world, the Biden administration actually ENABLES AND PROMOTES the trafficking and sexual slavery of children with its horrendous border policies, its push for early sexualization of children, championing children’s “right to consent” on everything including mutilating transgender surgeries, and so on.
“Pedophiles are sitting back right now,” says Ballard, “and going, ‘We’ve been pushing this agenda for decades, and now we don’t have to push any more, because the left is taking care of it for us’ – IN AMERICA!”
Ballard’s concerns are confirmed by Tara Lee Rodas, a Health and Human Services whistleblower who recently testified before Congress that under Joe Biden, “THE U.S. GOVERNMENT HAS BECOME THE MIDDLEMAN IN A LARGE-SCALE, MULTI-BILLION-DOLLAR CHILD TRAFFICKING OPERATION.”
But that’s just the beginning. The whole, secret criminal mega-enterprise of child sex trafficking and the global elites’ affinity for pedophilia is exposed as never before in the August issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, in a groundbreaking issue titled “THE NEW AMERICAN SLAVE TRADE: How the Biden regime enables and promotes child sex trafficking in the U.S.A.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
