North Korea launches several cruise missiles off west coast

TEHRAN, Jan. 30 (MNA) – North Korea on Tuesday fired several cruise missiles off the west coast, the South Korean military claimed.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said in a statement that it detected the North's launch around 7 a.m. local time from its west coast, Seoul-based Yonhap News reported.

However, the JCS did not provide further details to the media.

It was the third such cruise missile launch by North Korea in a week.

On Monday, North Korea said it tested a newly developed submarine-launched strategic cruise missile Pulhwasal-3-31 over the weekend.

Last week, North Korea announced that it had conducted the first test of the new type of strategic cruise missile "Bulhwasal-3-31."
