Oct 16 07:44	New Talk Taiwan	Yoon Suk-yeol 'Pyongyang drone case': Independent counsel team seeks 30-year sentence in second trial ZH尹錫悅「平壤無人機案」獨立檢察組二審具體求刑30年 Newtalk新聞韓國負責調查內亂案的獨立檢察組（獨檢組）今天（16日）就「平壤無人機滲透作戰」一案，在二審結案庭審中提請首爾高等法院判處前總統尹錫悅與前國防部長官金龍顯有期徒刑各30年，並求處前國軍防諜司令呂寅兄有期徒刑20年。獨檢組指控，尹錫悅等人為製造宣布緊急戒嚴的條件，於2024年10月指示無人機作戰司令部向平壤滲透無人機，企圖誘導朝鮮發動武力挑釁。檢方強調，此舉可能引發局部戰爭乃至全面戰爭，犯罪性質比內亂更為嚴重，凸顯行動將國家軍力用於圖謀私人政治目的、危及半島和平的重大風險。相較一審判決，檢方對尹錫悅與金龍顯的求刑與原判相同，均為30年；但對呂寅兄的求刑則由一審的15年提高至20年。一審法院於今年6月12日認定尹錫悅一般利敵罪與濫用職權妨害他人行使權利罪成立，判處尹錫悅、金龍顯各30年、呂寅兄15年有期徒刑。檢方此次維持對前兩人的重刑建議，並加重對呂寅兄的量刑請求，顯示對涉案軍事高層角色的進一步追究。此案源於2024年10月的無人機行動。獨檢與一審法院均認定，行動並非正當軍事因應，而是為2024年12月3日緊急戒嚴製造藉口，透過刺激朝鮮挑釁來營造「戰時」氛圍。無人機墜落導致軍事機密外洩，同時使朝方加強戒備，損害韓國軍事利益，並給國民與軍隊帶來安全風險。檢方在二審中特別強調行動「不惜引發戰爭」的嚴重性，將其定性為比內亂更危險的利敵行為。尹錫悅律師團此前對一審判決提起上訴，否認指示行動與戒嚴有直接關聯，主張相關指控邏輯牽強。二審法院尚未作出最終判決。此案件與尹錫悅其他內亂相關審判並行，持續引發對其執政後期軍事決策與政治意圖的關注。延伸閱讀：F-35C終於能上福特級艦！尚未服役的「甘迺迪號」完成初步相容驗證北韓近3年首次試射潛射戰略巡航飛彈發射平台、垂發魚雷成兩大亮點楊宏基觀點》不只要錢還要人！這評估報告戳破明擺著卻沒人承認的現實釜山影展再創新局！台韓簽署MOU進軍全球市場「台灣之夜」逾500位影業巨頭齊聚！沈伯洋掀「洋流」蔡筱薇發放洋流飄帶呼籲青年返鄉投票 KP

Oct 16 06:57	New Talk Taiwan	North Korea test-fires submarine-launched strategic cruise missile for the first time in 3 years; launch platform and vertical launch torpedo become two major highlights ZH北韓近3年首次試射潛射戰略巡航飛彈　發射平台、垂發魚雷成兩大亮點 Newtalk新聞北韓日前在朝鮮半島東部海域（日本海）試射兩款潛射戰略巡航飛彈，為近三年來首次進行水下發射試驗。官媒《朝中社》（KCNA）宣稱目的在檢驗水下作戰系統戰備狀態、提升海軍戰略任務能力，並展示核嚇阻力的可靠性。南韓軍方監測及官媒發布照片，有垂直發射及魚雷管發射、號稱「戰術核攻擊潛艦」金君玉英雄艦（舷號841）首次公開武器試射兩大亮點。南韓聯合參謀本部表示，軍方從發射前到巡航及終端階段全程追蹤，確認兩款飛彈分別由垂直發射管與魚雷管射出，但未立即公布具體潛艦型號，也未公開飛距、高度、軌跡或落點細節。一般認為可能是「火箭矢-3-31（Pulhwasal-3-31）」與「箭矢- 2」（Hwasal-2/Arrow-2）的組合，前者曾在2024年由試驗艦「8.24英雄艦」試射，據傳飛行約兩小時，命中日本海島嶼目標，外界估計射程可達約2,000公里，足以覆蓋韓半島全境與駐日美軍基地，並可搭載「火山-31」戰術核彈頭，但未確認是否為潛射；後者為北韓現役「鴨綠級」（Amnok- class）護衛艦艦載武器，2023年確認在該級艦艦艉有8聯裝發射裝置，射程據傳超過2,000公里，並可攜帶核彈頭。專家分析官媒公布的潛艦與發射畫面後，認為本次進行潛射平台的是2023年9月下水，被領導人金正恩稱為「核心水下進攻手段」的「金君玉英雄艦」。金君玉英雄艦船級屬蘇聯早期633型潛艦（北約代號：Romeo Class「羅密歐級」），排水量3,000噸，配備10具垂直發射管，據傳可攜帶、發射10枚北韓潛射飛彈「北極星-3」，動力型式未能確認為核動力或常規動力。南韓軍方先前曾指出，金君玉英雄號處於無法正常運作的狀態。但此次試射顯示該艦正進行作戰系統測試，技術問題可能已獲解決，下一步或將進行潛射彈道飛彈試射，並邁向部署。專家分析，垂直發射有助延長射程；傾斜或魚雷管發射則可降低飛行高度、增加攔截難度，具戰術意義；但水下長時間巡邏及完整作戰能力仍待驗證。自今年7月6日，中國宣稱以核動力潛艦向太平洋試射潛射彈道飛彈（外界多推測為巨浪-2（JL-2）或巨浪-3（JL-3），搭載模擬彈頭，射程約8000公里）後，法、北韓相繼進行潛射試驗，三國均明確強調「核威懾」意涵。中國數十年來首次將SLBM打入國際公海，驗證海基二次打擊能力。法國於10月6日由凱旋級核潛艦（Classe Le Triomphant）「警戒號」（Le Vigilant S618）試射最新M51.3彈道飛彈（無彈頭），總統馬克龍及軍方均稱為驗證並強化核嚇阻力量的可信度與作戰可靠性。加上此次北韓試射，三者雖系統類型（彈道／巡航）與技術成熟度不同，但均將潛射平台定位為核嚇阻體系的關鍵組成，凸顯海基核力量在當前戰略競爭中的重要性。延伸閱讀：可能搶得日本軍品出售「第一」菲想買中短程防空與海上監視系統強化南海防衛羅斯福「借住」橫須賀！前往中東前先在日本揮「利劍」楊宏基觀點》不只要錢還要人！這評估報告戳破明擺著卻沒人承認的現實北京遭冷落？與俄羅斯陸橋不到2年就完工中國與北韓新大橋延宕12年終啟用美掃蕩北韓遠端IT詐騙網絡德州搜逾40住宅、14人遭起訴含10中國人 KP
