South Korea says North Korea has fired several missiles toward its eastern waters

  • North Korea fired several ballistic missiles from around the eastern city of Wonsan on a Thursday morning into the East Sea.
  • The launch followed an increase in North Korea’s weapons testing amid rising tensions and coincided with joint U.S.-South Korean military exercises that Pyongyang called provocative.
  • South Korea reported that the missiles, which flew up to 800 kilometers and splashed in the sea, were likely short-range and aimed at testing missile performance, possibly for export purposes.
  • South Korea is sharing information about the launches with the United States and Japan, whose defense minister condemned the test and confirmed no missiles reached Japanese territory.
  • The missile tests reinforce North Korea's continued missile advancement despite UN bans and suggest efforts to supply weapons to Russia amid its war in Ukraine.
