South Korea Faces Dual Crises of Extreme Weather and Missile Threats

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take

North Korea's missile launch shows Trump's diplomacy overture backfired, leaving South Korea exposed to both natural disasters and military aggression.

💡 Why it matters

South Korea's security and disaster response are simultaneously tested, potentially reshaping US alliance commitments and regional stability.

Record-breaking rainfall in South Korea and Japan caused over 100,000 evacuations and 13 deaths, while North Korea launched 10 ballistic missiles after the US scaled back joint military drills.
