North Korea Launches Rockets Into The Sea

North Korea Launches 30 short range rockets into the sea, South Korea says

CNN reported a news report on how North Korea fired 30 short range rockers into the sea to the East of South Korea on early Saturday.  Officials reported that North Korea did not send out navigational warnings before they launched the rockets.  Although North Korea said they were just testing the rockets, they have already three other rocket tests this month and South Korea along with the United States are becoming concerned.  In defense to the reactions coming form the United States and South Korea, though, North Korea points to the fact that both South Korea and the Unites States have been conducting joint annual military drills since February.  They stated that they feel that them launching rockets is just a justifiable as the US and South Korea conducting continuous military drills.
