South Korea on alert after detecting signs of possible submarine missile launch

Sept. 24 (UPI) -- South Korean military and political officials said Saturday they are on alert for the possible firing of a submarine-launched ballistic missile by North Korea.

The South Korean military confirmed it has detected signs that Pyongyang is readying a possible SLBM launch off its eastern coast, the Yonhap News Agency reported.

"We are closely monitoring North Korea's SLBM-related facilities and activities, and maintaining a thorough readiness posture," a military official told the agency.

South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol is watching the situation after being briefed Friday while returning home from visits to Britain, the United States and Canada, officials said.
