North fires another set of cruise missiles

North Korea fired another set of cruise missiles within days of its previous launch, according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS).
 
"Around 7 a.m. today, we detected several cruise missiles the North launched into the Yellow Sea," said the JCS in a statement Tuesday. "South Korean and U.S. intelligence authorities are conducting a detailed analysis."
 
The latest launch on Tuesday came just two days after Pyongyang claimed to have successfully test fired submarine-launched cruise missiles from the East Sea.
