N. Korea test-fires more missiles

Jul. 02, 2009 | North Korea has test-fired two short-range missiles off its east coast, a spokesman for South Korea's defence ministry has said.

The spokesman said the surface-to-ship missiles were launched from a base near the port of Wonsan at about 0900 GMT.

Pyongyang had warned shipping to stay out of waters off its east coast.

The UN tightened sanctions against North Korea after it launched several missiles and carried out an underground nuclear test in May.
