North Korea Allegedly Fires 3 Missiles

Not to worry, though, as the missiles were short-range. South Korea reported the test after a period of mostly idleness from North Korea. The United States maintains their offering for peace and co-operation, urging North Korea to dismantle their nuclear weapons, which they have violently opposed. The likelihood of long-range, nuclear missiles being developed remains dubious. One bright side to this missile launch is that it might soothe tensions within the country without requiring a violent response or provocation.
