⚡North Korea is closely watching the performance and interception variables of its short-range ballistic missiles that it gave to Russia.

The data will likely allow them to make adjustments to current and future missile systems, especially as they continue to militarily gear towards a confrontation with South Korea.

North Korea gave Russia their KN-23 which closely resembles the Iskander-M SRBM. In return, it is expected that North Korea will get some sort of military assistance like surface-to-air missiles, aircraft, munition production equipment and/or other advanced technologies.

If Russia also gets Iranian ballistic missiles.. Iran will benefit from the data and military assistance.

⚡South Korea is preparing to conduct a live-fire artillery exercise in response to the recent North Korean coastal artillery provocation.
