Amid Stalled Nuclear Talks, North Korea Lobs Off A Few 'Unidentified Short-Range Projectiles'

Description

North Korea fired off what the South Korean military described as “several unidentified short-range projectiles” early Saturday local time. According to Gizmodo, it's a move that could threaten to upset whatever diplomatic gains the U.S. has achieved with the country in recent years. It’s not clear what type of projectiles the North fired, but South Korean officials say they only flew some 42 to 124 miles off the coast. According to Gizmodo, that rules out the possibility they were ICBMs or intermediate-range missiles. It’s possible they were short-range Scud missiles or were otherwise launched from a multiple-launch-tube system. North Korea has not yet stated it intends to break its stated end to nuclear and intercontinental ballistic missile tests.
