South Korea`s military says it has detected North Korea firing multiple cruise missiles into waters off its northeastern coast in its fifth test of such weapons since January. South Korea`s Joint Chiefs of Staff on Wednesday didn`t immediately provide the exact numbers of missiles fired or how war they flew.
The launches were North Korea`s six missile-launch event this year, also including a January 14 test of the country`s first solid-fuel intermediate range missile. Tensions on the Korean Peninsula are at their highest point in years after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un accelerated his weapons demonstrations to a record pace and issued provocative threats of nuclear conflict with South Korea and the US.
