South Korea’s military says North Korea has fired an unidentified projectile into the sea
SEOUL, South Korea -- North Korea fired a suspected missile into its eastern waters on Wednesday, the South Korean and Japanese militaries said, the first such launch in about two months amid long-dormant international diplomacy on the North's nuclear program.
The latest launch came after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un vowed to further boost his military capability at a ruling party conference last week.
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said North Korea fired the projectile toward its eastern waters on Wednesday morning. It gave no further details.
The Japanese Defense Ministry said Wednesday that North Korea fired what was likely a missile. The ministry did not disclose other details.
