The South Korean Defense Ministry reporting that three short range missiles were launched from North Korea, splashing down in the Sea of Japan.
Republic of Korea (ROK) analysts think they could be test firings of anti-ship missiles, or the new KN-02 missile.
I posted back in March that Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) would launch KN-02 missiles as proof of their claims to be able to strike with tactical nukes.
The Japanese government says they are investigating the reports from the ROK.
