The US Does Missile Test As It Contemplates North Korean Threats

 
Tensions between the US and North Korea have escalated. The White House has become even more concerned with Kim’s recent threats. The North Korean Government has continued to launch missiles, testing their capabilities.

On the other hand, the US has tested one of their missiles recently. The missile traveled 4200 miles to the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands. It had what is called a reentry vehicle which provided the data.

The missile was launched from a base in California, but didn’t carry an armed device. The recorded time of launch was 2:10 a.m.

A team from the 90th Missile Wing, the 30th Space Wing and the 576th Flight Test Squadron conducted the launch.

Unease

There is certain unrest in the White House about the current situation with North Korea. Talks of war have been mentioned before, but it looks more likely to happen now.

The white House gave a statement in response to military action against North Korea. Huckabee said “all options are on the table” but the administration would not “broadcast what we’re going to do.”

She said the main goal of the White House is to stop North Korea from testing missiles.

Senator Graham said Trump told him he is willing to go to war if it comes to that. If North Korea continues to fire missiles, then he would consider that option.

Analysts believe that a large part of the US Mainland is in reach of the ICBM missiles of North Korea.
