North Korea launched an unidentified projectile into the East Sea on August 6, according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The military is currently analyzing the specifications and range of the projectile.
If confirmed as a ballistic missile launch, this would mark North Korea's first provocation in 42 days.
Previously, on June 25, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw tests of tactical weapons, including a tactical ballistic missile, extended-range 155mm self-propelled artillery shells, and upgraded 240mm multiple rocket launchers, all capable of targeting South Korea.
