North Korea Missiles Moved Away from Launch site -U.S. Officials

Monday, 06 May 2013 05:44 PM EDT ET

WASHINGTON, May 6 (Reuters) - North Korea has taken two Musudan missiles off launch-ready status and moved them from their position on the country's east coast, U.S. officials told Reuters on Monday, after weeks of concern that Pyongyang was poised for a test-launch.

The United States did not believe the missiles were moved to an alternate launch site and were instead in a non-operational location, one of the U.S. officials said. The official did not elaborate. (Reporting by Phil Stewart; Editing by Sandra Maler)
