North Korea fires two more missiles, South says
North Korea has been the subject of a series of US and international sanctions over Pyongyang's development of nuclear weapons and a series of missile tests.Last Friday the North test-fired what South Korean officials said appeared to have been a new type of short-range missile.
Those two missiles landed in the Sea of Japan, also known as the East Sea, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff . The JCS said the missiles flew very low and travelled about 220km . Analysts said they appeared to have been unusually fast. On Wednesday, the North launched two missiles that flew 250km and reached a height of 30km before landing in the Sea of Japan, according to South Korea.That was the first launch since President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un held an impromptu meeting in June at the demilitarised zone , an area that divides the two Koreas, where they agreed to restart denuclearisation talks.
