3. Wide of briefing
4. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Lee Sung Joon, Joint Chiefs of Staff spokesperson:
(Asked whether the military did not specifically identify the type of the second missile because it exploded during its flight) "That is one of the reasons. There are also other possibilities we have to analyze, whether North Korea was testing a new weapon or another abnormal flight."
5. Various of briefing
STORYLINE:
North Korea test-fired two ballistic missiles Monday but one of them possibly flew abnormally, South Korea's military said, a day after the North vowed “offensive and overwhelming” responses to a new U.S. military drill with South Korea and Japan.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement the missiles were launched 10 minutes apart in a northeasterly direction from the town of Jangyon in southeastern North Korea.
It said the first missile flew 600 kilometers (370 miles) and the second missile 120 kilometers (75 miles) but didn’t say where they landed. North Korea typically test-fires missiles toward its eastern waters, but the second missile’s flight distance was too short to reach those waters.
Joint Chiefs of Staff spokesperson Lee Sung Joon later told a briefing the second missile suffered a possible abnormal flight during the initial stage of its flight.
He said if the missile exploded, its debris would likely have scattered on the ground though no damages were immediately reported. Lee said an additional analysis of the second missile launch was underway.
