N. Korea again fires ballistic missile toward East Sea: JCS

SEOUL, April 8 (Yonhap) -- North Korea fired another unidentified ballistic missile toward the East Sea on Wednesday afternoon after launching multiple short-range ballistic missiles earlier in the day, the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said.

The JCS said it detected the launch without providing further details.

The provocation came just hours after the JCS said it detected multiple short-range ballistic missiles launched from the North's Wonsan area at around 8:50 a.m.
