DHAKA: South Korea’s Joint Chief of Staff said they have fired at least three missiles on Monday morning (local time).

The missiles were fired from areas around Hwangju country, in North Hwanghae province, towards the Sea of Japan, a state from the top South Korean official said, reports CNN.

This came within two weeks of North Korea’s launching of submarine-launched ballistic missile. That missile had entered Japan’s air defense identification zone for the very first time.

The news came with a potentiality to embarrass NK’s only ally China, who is hosting G-20 summit currently.
