THE RUNDOWN |
Pyongyang fired two ballistic missiles on Wednesday, Seoul said, days after a similar launch that the nuclear-armed North described as a warning to the South over planned joint military drills with the United States.
The two devices were fired from the Wonsan area on the east coast at dawn and flew around 250 kilometers (155 miles), said South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
"We stress a series of missile launches do not help ease tensions in the Korean Peninsula and urge the North to refrain from such acts," they said in a statement.
The report comes a week after the latest provocation when North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was confirmed to have overseen a test-launch of two short-range missiles.
One of the two missiles North Korea fired into the sea last Thursday flew 690 kilometers and was a "new type" that JCS had not seen before, an official in Seoul said.
It was the North's first missile test since an impromptu meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un last month that produced an agreement to resume a working-level denuclearization dialogue.
The North is banned from ballistic missile launches under UN Security Council resolutions but it was the second such firing in less than a week, despite a meeting between leader Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump last month.
