\n SEOUL (Kyodo) — North Korea launched multiple short-range ballistic missiles toward the Sea of Japan on Thursday, the South Korean military said. \n<\/p>\n


\n The missiles were fired between 8:10 a.m. and 9:20 a.m. from the Wonsan area in the eastern part of the country, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said, adding it detected launches of various types of short-range ballistic missiles from the area. \n<\/p>\n


\n The missiles flew as far as approximately 800 kilometers before falling into the sea, the South Korean military said. \n<\/p>\n


\n North Korea last launched missiles on March 10 toward the sea, hours after South Korea and the United States began their large-scale annual joint military exercise called Freedom Shield. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
