FCDO statement on North Korea missile launches: 5 November

The FCDO has released a statement following North Korea's ballistic missile launches on 5 November.

From: Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office Published 5 November 2024

An FCDO spokesperson said:

North Korea's ballistic missile launches on 5 November are another breach of multiple UN Security Council resolutions (UNSCRs). Unlawful ballistic missile launches continue to destabilise the peace and security of the Korean Peninsula.
