SEOUL, March 14 (Xinhua) — North Korea launched unidentified projectiles eastward, the exact number of which has yet to be confirmed, the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Republic of Korea (JCS) reported on Saturday.
Currently, the Joint Chiefs of Staff is analyzing the characteristics and flight range of the projectiles.
On January 27, North Korea launched a ballistic missile into eastern waters. If confirmed as a ballistic missile, it would be the third launch this year.
The launch of the missiles took place against the backdrop of joint military exercises between the Republic of Korea and the United States, called "Freedom Shield," which are scheduled to last 11 days, until March 19.
Seoul and Washington insist the joint exercises are defensive, but North Korea has denounced them as a dress rehearsal for an invasion of the North.
