SEOUL: (APP) North Korea fired three ballistic missiles toward the Sea of Japan on Tuesday, South Korea’s military said, just over a week after issuing threats to take action over the planned deployment of a US anti-missile system in the South.
The missiles, launched early Tuesday from the western city of Hwangju, flew between 500 and 600 kilometers (311-373 miles) toward the Sea of Japan, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a press statement.
