North Korea’s Rocket Test – level 3

06-11-2019 15:00

North Korea confirmed another test of its new rocket system, and it has been the third test since August.

North Korea fired two projectiles which flew more than 200 miles, and they landed in the sea between North Korea and Japan. According to state media, the new system is able to totally destroy a target.

At the beginning of October, the US and North Korea met in Sweden to negotiate North Korea’s nuclear program. However, the meeting was not successful. North Korea’s foreign ministry said that the US must prepare a better offer before the end of this year.

Difficult words: confirm (to say that something is going to happen or happened), projectile (an object shot from a gun), State media (the news that a government sends out to its people), negotiate (to discuss).
