They’re still there. Or, rather, they were there and now they aren’t:
SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korea may have removed a Taepodong-2 missile from a launch site where the secretive state fired one of the long-range rockets in July, causing a regional security crisis, South Korean media reported on Friday.
Yonhap news agency cited a government official as saying a second missile at the Musudan-ri site on the country’s east coast had been removed in mid-July.
The South Korean daily JoongAng Ilbo reported on Friday the Taepodong-2 missile in Musudan-ri was moved to another location, citing an intelligence official.
But a defense ministry official contacted by telephone said it was too early to say if the missile had been removed.
“There is no clear basis to back up the reports that it has been moved.” said the official, who asked not to be named.
Perhaps they’ve found a buyer for it.
