South Korea has deployed anti missile warships to both coasts as the North moves missiles around and possibly loads them.

The North has continued it's threats against the US and now has warned Russia, the UK, and other countries that they should close their embassies, in Pyongyang.

Japanese, South Korean, and US forces in the area are on alert for any hostility that goes beyond verbal.

China also seems to be tiring of the war of words, seemingly more and more irritated by their small neighbor, which they alone defend at times.

Meanwhile, in North Korea, things remain apparently calm, despite the rhetoric and closing of all lines of communication with the South.

Troops from the US and South continue their war games, which have been mainly focused on practicing defending the South from missile attacks.
