South Korea: Missile Test Conducted South Korea said Thursday it test-fired a missile believed by experts to be able to hit a target virtually anywhere within North Korea. The missile, launched from a site about 125 miles south of Seoul, landed in the Yellow Sea off South Korea’s west coast after traveling only 62 miles. U.S. officials have long thought that South Korean missiles are capable of distances longer than those traveled during tests, the Times reported. South Korea’s Defense Ministry said the United States had been informed of the recent test and that it was conducted in accordance with “military regulations between the United States and Korea” (Don Kirk, New York Times, Nov. 22).
