North Korea launched multiple cruise missiles off its east coast, according to South Korean military sources. The launches occurred shortly after Pyongyang's recent test of the "Pulhwasal-3-31" strategic cruise missile, which the regime suggested could carry a nuclear warhead. The missiles were detected over waters near the North Korean port of Sinpo, known for manufacturing naval assets, including missile-firing submarines. While not prohibited by UN sanctions, these tests add to regional tensions. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has escalated weapons tests recently, sparking joint military exercises by the US, South Korea, and Japan, drawing condemnation from Pyongyang.
