Korea Conflict: South Korea: North Korea tests several missiles again

North Korea has launched multiple rockets towards the Sea of Japan, according to the South Korean military. The General Staff in Seoul reported that the projectiles traveled less than 300 kilometers and were closely monitored by South Korea and the US. This latest launch follows a series of tests, including two types of rockets with a dispersal warhead and around ten short-range ballistic missiles fired towards the Sea of Japan last Thursday.

North Korea is banned from launching ballistic missiles of any range under UN resolutions. Kim Yo Jong, sister of leader Kim Jong Un, has ruled out talks with the US for now, citing Washington's "hostile policy" towards Pyongyang.
