North Korea launches missiles towards the Sea of Japan again after military exercises with the USA

SIC Notícias12 September 2026 at 09:37

North Korea launched missiles towards the Sea of Japan again after military exercises with the United States. Pyongyang, which possesses nuclear weapons, had launched about ten ballistic missiles into the sea in August.

The launches occurred a few hours after US President Donald Trump declared he would meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un before the end of the year.

The article does not specify how many missiles were launched this time, nor does it provide more details about the type of missiles or the exact date of the most recent launches.

Why this matters

North Korea's missile launches represent an escalation in military tensions in the Asia-Pacific region, directly affecting neighboring countries such as Japan and South Korea. This development comes in the context of unstable international diplomacy, with the tests occurring after Trump's statements about a possible meeting with Kim Jong Un, demonstrating the complexity of negotiations over the North Korean nuclear program.

Chapel of the Remedies

The Chapel of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, at the site of Moreno in Santa Cruz, Madeira, celebrates its long community tradition since its founding in 1690 by canon Manuel Ferreira Teixeira Caiado. The article describes the annual feast on 8 September, the celebration of the 300th anniversary in 1990 with the presence of the bishop of Funchal, and recalls the theft of the 19th-century sacred image in 2018, replaced by a replica in 2020. The text highlights the chapel's role in preserving the community's identity and memory over more than three centuries.

Understand: Is a closed buzios reading negative or positive?

The article explains that in the Afro-Brazilian tradition's buzios reading, when the reading is "closed," it doesn't always mean something negative. It presents the concepts of Àláàfíà (a positive condition and balance), Insobù (a negative situation or impediment), and Òpìrà (another type of closure with a different reading), clarifying that even with a closed reading, there can be Iré—that is, a positive condition—depending on the configuration presented.
