North Korea launched several ballistic missiles toward the sea off its eastern coast, marking another event in an ongoing series of weapons trials. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff identified the area surrounding Pyongyang as the origin of the launches.

South Korean military tracking indicated that at least one missile traveled a distance exceeding 900 kilometers. Authorities in Seoul also noted that the exercise appeared to serve as a display of strength following South Korea's own test of a hypersonic weapon.
