North Korea has fired another unidentified “projectile,” according to South Korea’s military.

The weapon was launched from a location near Sino-ri in the NW, on a trajectory toward the east. Sino-ri has been identified in the past as the site of a missile operating base

North Korea and the United States are currently deadlocked in diplomacy meant to rid the North of its nuclear arsenal.

The launch came hours after the North through its state media described its earlier firing of rocket artillery and an apparent short-range ballistic missile on Saturday as a regular and defensive military exercise, and ridiculed South Korea for criticising the launches.

More to come.
