Over the past two years, North Korea has been testing what it calls “strategic cruise missiles,”.

Here they put it in quotes correctly, because that term doesn’t make that much sense. And according to other reports it was indeed not a cruise missile, but a short-range ballistic missile, which makes much more sense.

Yet, they just keep using this non-sense terminology without quotes and even include “cruise missile” in the title.

Not exactly quality journalism here, Reuters.

babe wake up it’s time for your monthly north korean missile test

Calling Kim Jong Un: Kim seems weird.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Kim visited a navy fleet stationed on the east coast to oversee the test aboard a warship, KCNA said, without specifying the date of his trip.

Kim said the ship would maintain “high mobility and mighty striking power and constant preparedness for combat to cope with sudden situations,” KCNA said.

South Korea’s military has said this year’s exercises will be held on the “largest scale ever”, involving tens of thousands of troops from both sides, as well as some member states of the U.N. Command.

President Yoon Suk Yeol said the drills would feature several contingency scenarios, such as cyber, terror and drone attacks, and a disinformation campaign by the North.

Choi Il, a former navy officer who runs a think tank focusing on naval power, said the missiles can fly more than 1,000 km (621 miles) and hit land-based targets, and the new ship appears to be a corvette-class vessel, designed to minimise radar detection.

Aboard the ship, Kim vowed to reinforce the navy with improved combat efficiency and modern means of surface and underwater offensive and defensive capabilities, KCNA said.
