This picture taken on the morning of October 2, 2019 and released by North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency on October 3, 2019 shows the test-firing of"the new-type SLBM Pukguksong-3" in the waters off Wonsan Bay of the East Sea of Korea. AFP/KCNA VIA KNSWASHINGTON: Satellite imagery of a North Korean shipyard on Friday shows activity suggestive of preparations for a test of a medium-range submarine-launched ballistic missile, a US think-tank reported on Friday.
North Korea said last October it had successfully test-fired a Pukguksong-3, a new submarine-launched ballistic missile , from the sea as part of efforts to contain external threats and bolster self-defense. North Korea has suspended long-range missile and nuclear tests since 2017, but efforts led by US President Donald Trump to persuade it to give up its nuclear and missile programs have achieved little.Trump is seeking reelection in November and a North Korean missile test before that would highlight the lack of progress despite Trump's unprecedented meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
