North Korea test-fired multiple short-range ballistic missiles on Oct. 22, South Korea’s military said. The launches were the first since May and came a week before U.S. President Donald Trump and other world leaders are expected to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Gyeongju, South Korea, from Oct. 31 to Nov. 1.
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said the projectiles were fired from an area near Pyongyang early on Wednesday and flew about 350 kilometers (217 miles) toward the northeast. The missiles appeared to land inland, a military official said.
