N.Korea Launches 3 Ballistic Missiles – S.Korea

Seoul — North Korea launched three ballistic missiles into the sea off its east coast Tuesday morning, according to South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The missiles, presumed to be Scud-types, were launched from North Hwanghae Province in the country’s western region from 5:45 a.m. to 6:40 a.m., the JCS said. The missiles seem to have flown some 500 to 600 kilometers before falling into the Sea of Japan.

The JCS said the missiles have range to reach nearly all of South Korea. (PNA/Kyodo) JMC/PJN
