U.S. Test-fire of Interceptor Missile Disclosed

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, February 7 (KCNA) -- Voice of People, an Internet broadcasting service in south Korea, disclosed the fact that the Missile Defense Agency of the U.S. Department of Defense recently test-fired an interceptor missile targeted against the DPRK. The broadcasting service quoted the Jan. 25 issue of The Washington Times as saying so.
    According to the paper, the U.S. conducted the test of intercepting a missile on Jan. 24 with many visitors including U.S. Congressmen and media persons watching it. But what mattered was that the U.S. chose a Pacific island as a missile launching site but the observers were unanimous in the view that the island was, in fact, supposed to be the DPRK.
