North Korea holds another missile launch test

North Korea conducted another in a string of missile tests Saturday amid heightened international tensions over its nuclear program.


South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported the missile was launched from the city of Kusong, north of the capital Pyongyang and traveled an estimated 435 miles (700 kilometers) before falling into the ocean. Other tests that originated from there have had mixed results with the last two attempts leading to detonation of the projectiles shortly after takeoff.

The United States military confirmed the distance the projectile traveled, but did not describe what kind of missile it was.
