North Korea Fires Three Ballistic Missiles Into East Sea, Landing Beyond Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone
Read this in the Market Flux appNorth Korea launched three ballistic missiles into the East Sea on Monday, according to South Korea's military and Japan's NHK broadcaster. The launches were first reported around 12:23 AM UTC, with South Korea initially describing the projectile as unidentified before Japan's coast guard issued a warning of a possible ballistic missile launch.
At least one of the missiles appears to have already landed by the time Japan's coast guard issued its fresh alert, and NHK later reported that the projectile landed beyond Japan's exclusive economic zone, a 200-nautical-mile boundary that has served as a flashpoint in past North Korean tests. The total count of three ballistic missiles was confirmed by NHK shortly after 1:00 AM UTC.
