North Korea has tested a number of short-range missiles – the latest in a series of launches condemned by other nations.
The projectiles fired on Monday flew for 200km and landed in waters east of North Korea, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement.
South Korean news agency Yonhap, citing an unidentified government source, said the South Korean military was trying to find what types of missile and projectile were fired.
The test is the fourth reported in North Korea since the beginning of March, as the secretive state steps up its defiance of US and UN sanctions imposed in response to recent launches.
It came three days after the South said the North fired a medium-range missile into the sea for the first time since early 2014.
