unidentified projectile, South Korea's military says, less than a week

fired from the Sino-ri location north-west of the capital, Pyongyang,
toward the east, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.On Saturday, North Korea launched a number of projectiles from its east coast into the sea.
