Analysts say speculations that North Korea may be moving to test-launch a missile in the coming weeks are likely inaccurate, claiming the moves are most likely a part of the country's annual military training.

Intelligence sources in Seoul said Thursday that military vehicles, soldiers and missile scientists were converging around multiple Rodong missile launch sites in the North. The sources said it is highly probable that the move is a part of the North Korean missile unit's annual training.

The sources added that, after considering a number of possibilities, there is small chance that the North would test-launch a missile.
