North Korea launches space satellite, alerts sound in S.Korea, Japan
North Korea had said it would launch its first military reconnaissance satellite between May 31 and June 11 to boost monitoring of U.S. activities.
Air raid sirens wailed across the South Korean capital of Seoul around 6:32 a.m. as the city issued a warning asking citizens to prepare for potential evacuation. Later alerts said the city warning had been sent by mistake. Before Wednesday's launch, the U.S. State Department said any North Korean launch that used ballistic missile technology would violate multiple United Nations Security Council resolutions.
