North Korea has fired multiple short-range ballistic missiles into eastern waters. The South Korean military confirmed this in a statement. The missile launches occurred between 08:10 and 09:10 local time from Wonsan, a city on the country's east coast. Reports indicate that the missiles landed in the sea after covering a distance of 800 kilometers.
After the missile launch, South Korea's military ramped up surveillance, while the United States and Japan shared intelligence. Notably, this marks North Korea's first ballistic missile test in two months. The last test took place on March 10, in reaction to joint military exercises conducted by South Korea and the United States.
