North Korea fired multiple cruise missiles off east coast

North Korea fired multiple cruise missiles off its east coast on Sunday, its second such launch in less than a week, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said.
The missiles were launched at around 8 a.m. and were being analysed by South Korean and U.S. intelligence authorities, the JCS said, without specifying how many missiles were fired.
“While strengthening surveillance and vigilance, our military is cooperating closely with the United States and monitoring additional signs and activities from North Korea,” it said in a statement.
The latest launches came days after North Korea fired what it called a new strategic cruise missile, suggesting it is nuclear capable.
