“North Korea fired a flurry of short-range ballistic missiles on Wednesday, Seoul’s military said, a week ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump’s scheduled visit to South Korea for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. ‘Our military detected several projectiles presumed to be short-range ballistic missiles fired from the Junghwa area of North Hwanghae Province in a northeasterly direction around 8:10 a.m. today,’ Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a text message to reporters. … The launch was North Korea’s fifth of the year, and the first since South Korean President Lee Jae Myung took office in June.” (10/22/25)
