One of two missiles had apparently strayed off its course due to a technical malfunction, landing in a civilian populated area in a town on the Syrian-Turkish border. The victims were all civilians. The incident was part of a botched attempt to test a new short-range ballistic missile developed together by the three countries, the report said.
According to Kyodo News, the area - a marketplace - was immediately closed off to the public, who was told that a gas explosion had ensued and was the cause of the wreckage.
It was unclear where the other missile landed.
This thing landed in SYRIA, not NK. I bet that it got someones attention around Netanyahu.
