North Korea fired what is presumed to be a single ballistic missile into waters off the east of the Korean Peninsula on Saturday, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff, the country's ninth such test of the year.
"The South Korean military is maintaining a readiness posture by monitoring related movements in preparation for additional launches," the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement.
The missile was launched from the Sunan area near the capital Pyongyang, said the statement.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
