North Korea conducts new missile tests; fires two missiles into sea

<span style="color: #222222;">Korea conducted new missile tests firing two missiles into the sea today. It was the fifth round of such launches in two weeks, with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un labelling them a warning over the US-South Korean joint military drills that began just days ago.</span><br />'' <span style="color: #222222;"><br />'' South Korean military in a statement said, the missiles are thought to be short-range ballistic missiles. </span><br />'' <span style="color: #222222;"><br />''Today's tests came shortly after US President Donald Trump said, he agreed with Kim's opposition to the war games albeit for financial rather than military reasons. Mr Trump has repeatedly talked up his close personal relationship with Kim, as US administration seeks to resume stalled denuclearisation talks with the North Korea. Mr Trump has appeared determined to secure a denuclearisation agreement with North Korea ahead of next year's presidential elections, despite faltering talks since he first met Kim in a historic ice-breaking summit in Singapore in June last year.</span><br />
