North Korea
North Korea test-fired short-range missiles off its east coast on Monday, the Yonhap News Agency (South Korea) reports.
Some reports indicated that two missiles were involved, while others reported there were five.
The missiles were launched south of Musudan-ri, North Hamgyeong province, said a South Korean government official.
Pyongyang previously issued a ban on the use of waters in that area from Oct. 10 to Oct. 20, which could mean more launches are expected.
