North Korea launched an unidentified projectile toward the East Sea on Wednesday, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said. The military has not disclosed its type, range or other details and is assessing whether it was a ballistic missile. The launch follows a series of North Korean weapons tests, including recent tests involving missile warheads and an earlier launch of more than 10 short-range ballistic missiles from the Wonsan area. The launch also comes amid heightened tensions with Washington after North Korean official Kim Yo Jong rejected U.S. accusations linking Pyongyang to a major cryptocurrency theft and criticized what she called U.S. hostile policy.
