North Korea Fires Two Ballistic Missiles Towards Japan
North Korea launched two ballistic missiles towards Japan on Sunday, according to South Korean and Japanese authorities. The missiles landed outside Japan's exclusive economic zone. The launches occurred within a three-hour period. North Korea accused the United States of escalating tensions with military exercises, stating this as a reason for the launches. The launches also came days after North Korea reaffirmed its status as a nuclear-armed state and rejected a UN resolution demanding it halt its nuclear activities.
