The North Korean communist regime is allegedly preparing to launch a ballistic missile during U.S.-South Korea military drills this week. South Korean news outlet Dong-A Ilbo reported on Oct. 14 that transporter-erecter-launchers (TELs) were seen moving in at least three regions.

It cited an unnamed government source stating that a U.S. satellite captured images of the TELs being moved in areas near Pyongyang and North Pyongan Province, saying Korean and U.S. military officials were observing the situation and view it as “a sign of preparation for the launch” of a ballistic missile.
