Analysts Believe October 10th North Korean Holiday May Be Used to Fire A Missile

I guess we will see if there will be an upcoming North Korean missile launch, but it seems like the timing for one make no sense right now:

Analysts and security officials say they are watching for signs that North Korea may use an upcoming holiday to unveil new weapons or test fire a submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), after a flurry of activity was detected at a key base. 

Formations of troops have been seen practicing for what is expected to be a major military parade Oct. 10, the 75th anniversary of the ruling Workers’ Party of Korea. Some observers say North Korea may showcase its largest missiles for the first time since 2018. 

Meanwhile, imagery analysts and security officials caution that so far there is no conclusive evidence of an impending launch. But after several typhoons lashed North Korea in early September, satellite photos have shown a flurry of activity at the Sinpo South Shipyard, including in a secure basin where a barge used in previous underwater missile launches is docked.

Wonder if this is being orchestrated by the Chinese as part of the plandemic. A successful missile launch would break the silence of no missile launches or nuclear testing and critics could use it to damage Trump’s image right before the election.
