North Korea launches military reconnaissance satellite...maybe it explodes in flight? - South Korean report

North Korea launched a FLY object, believed to be a military reconnaissance satellite, on the 27th. The Joint Chiefs of Staff said on the same day, "The South Korean military announced that North Korea had launched a FLY object at around 10:44 pm in Tongcha, North Pyongan Province."
"We have detected a single FLY object, which North Korea claims is a military reconnaissance satellite, heading south from the Dongchang-ri area into the Yellow Sea," the ministry said.
The FLY was found in a large amount of debris in the sea off the North Korean side at around 10:46 pm.
The Bureau is conducting a detailed analysis to determine whether the FLY was in a normal flight. It has been suggested that the wrap-up party may have failed.
Prior to this, North Korea had launched a rocket carrying a satellite between midnight on the same day and midnight on June 4.
North Korea has notified Japan that it will hold a wrap-up party on a satellite. Every time North Korea holds a wrap-up party on a satellite, it must report to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the Global Navigation Warning System (WWNWS) in accordance with the territorial waters of the two countries to which North and South Korea belong.
The three wrap-up parties for reconnaissance satellites held last year were all held on or just before the first day of the teaser period. The first in May, the second in August, and the third in September.
In the third launch, the rocket carrying the satellite was wrapped up in a wrap-up party in the morning and early morning of the first day of the teaser period. However, in the third launch in November, which succeeded in entering orbit, a surprise launch was carried out in the middle of the night before the teaser period began.
Prior to this, South Korean military authorities announced that the launch was part of a show of strength and determination of the South Korean military, following North Korea's teasing of a wrap-up party for a military reconnaissance satellite on the same day.
According to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, from around 1 p.m., the Air Force's F35A, F15K, KF16 and other combat aircraft flew south of the no-fly line (NFL) in the forward-central region.
About 20 fighter jets conducted attack formation flight training and strike training. The Joint Chiefs of Staff said, "The attack formation training was conducted to demonstrate our will and ability to retaliate immediately, strongly, and to the end in the event of an enemy provocation."
This was carried out."
