North Korea fired a short-range ballistic missile into the East
Sea on Sunday, South Korea's military said, two days after a
nuclear-powered U.S. aircraft carrier arrived here for allied
drills, Trend reports citing Yonhap .
The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said it detected the launch from
an area in or around Taechon, North Pyongan Province, at 6:53 a.m.
It provided no further details immediately.
'While strengthening our monitoring and vigilance, our military
is maintaining a full readiness posture in close cooperation with
the United State,' the JCS said in a text message sent to
reporters.
The launch followed reports that Pyongyang seems to be preparing
to fire a submarine launched ballistic missile (SLBM).
