TOKYO — North Korea launched a missile early Wednesday morning, South Korea’s joint chiefs of staff said.
This comes after more than two months without a missile launch in a year that has been marked by big advances and a steady salvo of launches, a pause that some hoped could allow diplomatic efforts to gain traction.
Wednesday’s missile was launched from South Pyongan province just before 3 a.m. local time and was fired to the east, South Korea’s joint chiefs said, according to the Yonhap News Agency. The South Korean military was still working to ascertain what kind of missile it was and how far it flew.
In response to the North’s provocation, the South’s armed forces conducted a “precision strike” missile launch, the joint chiefs said.
Emergency alerts were triggered in Japan, warning residents of the missile launch.
