Matthew 24:10,11 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
The first ballistic missile with range long enough to strike within North Korea is now part of the South Korean army’s arsenal.
The first long-range missile was test fired on Wednesday according to the South Korean Defense Ministry.
The missile was fired from a vehicle, indicating that the missile is part of a mobile missile system that could be taken anywhere in South Korea. The weapon is part of a system being developed since a 2012 agreement with the United States to extend their weapon distance capability. The South can now create weapons long enough to strike into North Korea but not able to threaten China or Japan.
South Korean media say the new missiles are called “Hyunmoo-2B” and have a range of 310 miles.
“The test demonstrated improved ballistic missile capability that can strike all parts of North Korea swiftly, and with precision, in the event of armed aggression or provocation,” a statement from the country’s president read.
North Korea has a large arsenal of missiles that can not only reach South Korea but also threaten Japan. The country has also claimed a recent test-fire of missiles that can be launched from submarines.
