Saturday's missile launch would be North Korea's first such action in more than a year as it seeks to up pressure on Washington with nuclear talks deadlocked

Pyongyang fires"several projectiles" from its east coast, South Korea's military says, as the country appears to step up pressure against US after February's failed nuclear summit in Hanoi.

South Korea's military has bolstered its surveillance in case there are additional weapons launches, and South Korean and US authorities are analysing the details. The South initially reported that a single missile was fired, but later issued a statement that said "several projectiles" had been launched and that they flew up to 200 kilometres before splashing into the sea toward the northeast. Experts say the North may increase these sorts of low-level provocations to apply pressure on the United States to agree to reduce crushing international sanctions.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement that the United States was aware of North Korea's actions and would continue to monitor the situation. During the diplomacy that followed the North's weapons tests of 2017, Kim said that the North would not test nuclear devices or ICBMs.
