North Korean missile launches continue to destabilize the region, a Pentagon spokesperson reiterated Thursday, soon after Pyongyang resumed its ballistic missile testing.
North Korea fired a short-range ballistic missile into the East Sea on Thursday (Seoul time) in its latest military provocation that came after an eight-day hiatus.
"It continues to be destabilizing that they launch these ballistic missiles and if they continue to do that, it just further destabilizes the region," deputy spokesperson for the defense department Sabrina Singh told a press briefing.
"Our commitment remains strong to the Republic of Korea and Japan," she added.
