Pyongyang Launched Missiles Toward South Korea During Hegseth's Visit

The Pentagon chief visited the border of the two Koreas for the first time in eight years.

North Korea made several artillery missile launches less than an hour before Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth arrived at the demilitarized zone on the border with South Korea, Younhap wrote, citing the South Korean military.

According to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the DPRK launched missiles toward the waters of the northern Yellow Sea around 4:00 p.m. (10:00 a.m. MST) on Monday, November 3.

On that day, the Pentagon chief visited the border of the two Koreas for the first time in eight years. He traveled with South Korean Defense Minister An Gyu Bak to the demilitarized zone on the border with the DPRK.

The 250-kilometer-long and 4-kilometer-wide demilitarized zone is a buffer zone between the two Koreas. Technically, the two sides remain at war, as the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.
