North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles into the sea on a day . The move is likely a show of anger over the continued joint military exercises that South Korea and the US are currently conducting in the demilitarised zone ( DMZ ), which separates US South Korea . The move by North Korea comes a day after its ruling regime publicised a purported mock-up of a key part of a nuclear warhead. While such a reaction from the country is not uncommon, it will increase tensions in the North Korean peninsula. The North’s Rodong Sinmun newspaper carried photos on its front page showing Kim and nuclear scientists standing beside what outside analysts say appears to be a model warhead part with a ballistic missile or a model ballistic missile in the background. The country’s leader, Kim , took the opportunity to repeat that North and had developed a small atomic bomb, which could be placed on a missile. South Korea described the move as an “intolerable direct challenge” to the international community.
