See Details on AmazonNorth Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who oversaw the missile launch, said: “It’s a very important strategy to maintain or expand the strong and reliable nuclear deterrent,” because of “the recent geopolitical crisis and various international circumstances,” according to KCNA.
The missiles hit targets about 1,000 km (621 miles) away, over the sea east of North Korea, KCNA said.

The South Korean military said on Sunday (January 4) that North Korea fired ballistic missiles towards the sea to its east as South Korean President Lee Jae Myung started a state visit to China.
The missile launch followed a North Korean statement on Sunday (January 4, 2026) that denounced the U.S. strikes on Venezuela as a violation of that country’s sovereignty.
