North Korea fired a pair of short-range projectiles off its east coast on Thursday, the first test launch in nearly a month, South Korea’s military announced.
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said that the North fired the projectiles from Yeonpo, in the country’s eastern South Hamgyong Province, Yonhap News reported.
The projectiles flew about 236 miles before falling into the sea off the country’s east coast, with South Korea’s military saying they were fired in a 30-second interval. The military did not say what kind of projectiles were launched.
