North Korea test launched a suspected intercontinental ballistic missile and two weapons with a shorter range into the sea on Wednesday.
All three missiles were fired from near Pyongyang off the eastern coast between 6am and 7am on Wednesday, according to South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The suspected ballistic missile reached a height of 540km (335 miles) and travelled 360km (223 miles) east after it was fired from Pyongyang.
A statement from the South Korean government said: “North Korea’s sustained provocations can only result in stronger and faster South Korea-U.S. combined deterrence and can only deepen North Korea’s international isolation.
“(Our) government is maintaining constant readiness to strongly and effectively respond to any kind of North Korean provocation.
