Seoul: On March 20, it emerged that North Korea appeared to have fired a short-range multiple rocket launcher. South Korea’s military said that the move was amid increased military tensions on the peninsula after a spate of larger missile launches by the nuclear-armed North. “This morning there was firing in North Korea which is assumed to be multiple rocket launcher shots, and our military was monitoring the related situation and maintaining a readiness posture,” South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement.
