North Korea fired multiple short-range ballistic missiles into the East Sea this morning. South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said they detected the launches at about 7:30 a.m. from the Sariwon area in the western province of North Hwanghae. The Yonhap news agency reported that the missiles flew about 400 kilometers before splashing into the sea. The South Korean military said that the latest launches apparently involved North Korea’s KN-25 super-large 600-millimeter multiple rocket launchers. This weapon system is believed to be capable of striking anywhere in South Korea when fired from Sariwon.
