N.Korea fires ‘projectiles’ after saying it will talk to US: South

Seoul (AFP) – North Korea on Wednesday fired unidentified “projectiles” toward the sea, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said, a day after Pyongyang signalled a resumption of nuclear talks with the US.

No further details were immediately available but it was the latest in a series of similar launches. Previous tests have been identified as those of short-range missiles, and in September the North said it had tested a “super-large multiple rocket launcher” system.
