There has been a large explosion at a South Korean air base; the closest base to the North Korean border.
Photos and videos from social media show what appears to be a missile launch from the ground up into the sky, but seconds later, something on the ground exploded.
Locals say the South Koreans fired a missile interceptor that MISSED it's target allowing the inbound missile to hit successfully.
This is DISPUTED by other sources that say the explosion was the result of an "accident" at the base, although no one is saying what the "accident" was.
But the photo above clearly shows the launch contrail of a previously fired missile, illuminated by the explosion and fire below. So it is clear just from this empirical evidence that some type of missile WAS fired into the sky BEFORE whatever caused the explosion, actually hit.
More details as they become available
