SEOUL: North Korea fired multiple missiles from its Tongchang-ri region, where a missile base is located, early on Monday (Mar 6), South Korea’s military said.

The missiles – fired from the country’s east coast – flew 1,000km, the military added.

Tongchang-ri is near the North’s border with China, where the isolated state fired a long-range rocket last year that put an object into orbit and was condemned by the United Nations for violating resolutions that ban the use of missile technology.

A South Korean military official said the launch, which came at 7.36am (6.36am, Singapore time), was being analysed to determine the type of the projectile used. Tiếp tục đọc “North Korea fires missiles, 3 reach Japan waters” →
