BBC: North Korea 'Will Test Missiles Weekly'

North Korea will test missiles every week, according to Vice Foreign Minister Han Song-Ryol.

"We'll be conducting more missile tests on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis," he told the BBC on Monday, adding an "all-out war" will occur if the U.S. attacks.

North Korea reportedly failed in its latest missile launch, according to CNN, on Sunday.

"The president and his military team are aware of North Korea's most recent unsuccessful missile launch," Secretary of Defense James Mattis said. "The President has no further comment."

Vice President Mike Pence delivered a warning to Pyongyang while with South Korea's acting president Hwang Kyo-ahn.

"North Korea would do well not to test his resolve or the strength of the armed forces of the United States in this region," Pence said, according to Reuters.

Kim Song Gyong, head of the North Korean Foreign Ministry's European Department, told Reuters if the U.S. makes "the slightest movement" toward a nuclear strike on his country, they would preemptively attack and "destroy the aggressors without any mercy."
