On Monday, North Korea fired multiple ballistic missiles off its east coast into the Sea of Japan, according to Seoul's military. The launches occurred amid a backdrop of heightened regional tensions and friction along the heavily fortified border.
The military actions follow a recent landmine explosion inside the Demilitarized Zone that resulted in injuries to South Korean soldiers. In response to the escalating situation and the subsequent missile launches, both South Korea and the United States have enhanced their military readiness.
