North Korea fired an unidentified ballistic missile from areas near Pukchang in North Korea, according to a press release by South Korean military’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Sunday’s projectile launch comes a week after what analysts called North Korea’s most successful ballistic missile test yet.
That missile — a Hwasong-12 was launched May 14 — flew for about 30 minutes and landed in water 60 miles south of Russia’s Vladivostok region, the home of the Russian Pacific Fleet.
North Korea has attempted at least 10 missile launches on seven occasions since President Donald Trump took office in January.
