TOKYO - North Korea test-launched two missiles Wednesday that landed in the Sea of Japan, Japanese media reported. A Pentagon official said they were Scud missiles and not the the longer-range variety that has been the focus of international concern.
The reclusive communist state launched the first missile at 3:32 a.m., or 2:32 p.m. Tuesday EDT, and it crashed into the Sea of Japan several minutes later, public broadcaster NHK reported. Japan's Kyodo news agency carried a similar report and quoted a government official as saying a second missile had also been fired.
