S. Korea remains alert to N. Korea’s possible satellite launch attempt on Nov. 18
합참 “북한, 18일 미사일공업절 계기 정찰위성 3차 발사 가능성“
Over the weekend, North Korea designated next Saturday as “Missile Industry Day,“ and South Korea’s military remains alert as the regime could try another spy satellite launch attempt on that day.
Bae Eun-ji has the details.
The South Korean military says it’s keeping an eye on a possible third attempt by North Korea to launch its military satellite on November 18th --which Pyongyang has designated as “Missile Industry Day,“ to commemorate last year’s successful test launch of its Hwasong-17 ICBM.
“North Korea has designated so-called “industry days“ several times before. So we are closely monitoring and tracking the situation, taking various possibilities into account, including a possible provocation on one of those anniversaries.“
The Joint Chiefs of Staff added that intelligence authorities of South Korea and the U.S. have been closely coordinating on the matter.
Meanwhile, one expert noted that South Korea is also scheduled to send its own military spy satellite from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, with the help from Elon Musk’s Space X on November 30th, and explained that this makes it risky for the North.
“If North Korea makes an attempt to launch its satellite, whether it be on November 18th or anytime up to November 30th and it doesn’t succeed, then they could very likely be upstaged by South Korea.“
But he added that North Korea will likely carry out the launch at some point, presumably before the end of the year.
The North has failed twice in recent months to put a spy satellite into orbit.
Immediately after it failed in its second attempt in August, Pyongyang announced that it would make a third attempt in October, but even into November, still hasn’t attempted the third launch.
North Korea’s satellite launch is seen as a disguised test of ballistic missile technology and is considered a violation of multiple UN Security Council resolutions.
