WASHINGTON, DC.- Residents of a South Korean Island scrambled and fled into underground shelters after North Korea fired 23 Missiles Wednesday, with at least one of the missiles landing near the rival Nations Sea Border. South Korea quickly responded by launching their own missiles in the same border area, raising the bar for a potential military escalation between the two countries.

     The missile launch came just hours after North Korea threatened to use Nuclear Weapons to get The U.S. and South Korea to " Pay The Most Horrible Price In History," for the ongoing military drills that The U.S. and South Korea is conducting. North Korea views the military drills as an invasion rehearsal. The White House responded by saying The U.S. has no hostile intent towards North Korea and has vowed to work with allies to curb North Korea's nuclear ambitions.

     A spokesperson for The South Korean Military said, North Korea launched at least 23 Missiles, 17 in the morning and 6 in the afternoon off of its Eastern and Western Coasts on Wednesday. It was further stated that the weapons were all short range ballistic missiles or suspected surface-to-air-missiles. Also on Wednesday, North Korea fired around 100 artillery shells into The Eastern Maritime Buffer Zone that the North and South created in 2018 to ease tensions between the two rival Nations.

     The 23 launches, represent a one day record for weapons tests by The North Korean Military. 

     One of the ballistic missiles was heading towards South Korea's Ulleung Island before it landed 16 miles Northwest of the Island. Officials with The South Korean Military issued an Air-Raid Alert on the Island, according to South Korea's Joint Chief of Staff. South Korean Media Outlets published photos of Island residents moving into underground shelters.

     A couple hours later, The South Korean Military said it lifted the alert. The Transportation Ministry said it was closing some air routes above South Korea's Eastern Water until Thursday morning.

     This is the first time that a North Korean Missile had landed that close to the Sea Border since the Country was politically divided in 1948.

     Later Wednesday, in response to the North's actions, South Korean fighter jets launched Three air-to-surface, precision guided missiles near the Eastern Border.

     In 2010, North Korea shelled a front line South Korean Island of The Country's Western Coast, killing four people. But those weapons used were artillery shells, not ballistic missiles, that launches or tests of ballistic missiles are banned by multiple Unite Nations Security Council Resolutions.
