The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) fired a ballistic missile toward the east coast of the country, South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said early Sunday.
The projectile, launched at around 7:55 a.m. local time (2255 GMT Saturday) from Banghyeon in DPRK's North Pyongan Province, is estimated to be an intermediate range ballistic missile, local media reported.
