N.K. test-fires missiles into West Sea: sources
SEOUL, March 28 (Yonhap) -- North Korea test-fired several missiles into the sea off the country's west coast Friday, sources here said.
The test, believed to be of Russian Styx missiles, comes one day after the communist nation threw out all South Korean government officials from the inter-Korean industrial complex in the North in apparent disgruntlement over the Lee Myung-bak government's hard-line North Korea policy.

This is to be expected. Both S. Korea and U.S. are less cooperative this year. They were expected to create troubles around Western maritime border(NLL.) They are rather predictable.
There would be more to come if N. Korea does not get what they want.

"There would be more to come if N. Korea does not get what they want."This should lead to a good question for the next NKoreaCommie appeasing Democrat party presidential candidate. "What would Clinton have done if he/she got this phone call at 3:00 AM?"

The Styx has about a 50 mile range. I think that Russia stopped making them back in 1960. They fly about as fast as a 767 jetliner. Hardly a threat to world peace!

The Styx is an antique. Did Chia Head buy them at the USSR fire sale?

Their next move would be sending old patrol ships with T-34 tank turret mounted, and confront S. Korean Navy. Or kidnap S. Korean fishing boats.

North Korea could delay its denuclearization
SEOUL - North Korea warned Friday that the delay of the United States to resolve a dispute over the nuclear issue could delay the whole process of its denuclearization, reported the news agency North Korean KCNA.
"If the United States continues to say so insistent that what does not exist and that they are delaying the settlement of the nuclear issue, it will have serious consequences for the deactivation of nuclear facilities," KCNA said quoting a release a spokesman for the North Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

It’s possible, even likely, that you are correct that NK is throwing a fit.
However, another possibility, less likely, is that the U.S. is gaming NK radars and sonars in order to annoy NK into wasting assets.
Playing with what is displayed on old NK radar screens and sonar posts is well within U.S. elecwar/sigint capabilities...and considering the age of a lot of NK equipment, it may be that we have no reason to avoid playing with them (think: they are going to get upgraded sets soon from China).

NK is unraveling a little faster than normal, since the new SK government took over and decided not to just give them free stuff and put up with their guff anymore.
They will next be threatening China and S. Korea with a refugee crisis if they really come apart.

Right. It's not really difficult as long as your mind is not clouded by wishful thinking.:-)
