South Korea, the U.S. and Japan are closely sharing ballistic missile-related intelligence and maintaining a high state of readiness.<\/p>\n<p> Earlier, on the 19th of last month, North Korea launched several short-range ballistic missiles from the Sinpo area in South Hamgyong Province into the East Sea, claiming the rounds were equipped with multiple warheads. That was the first launch in 37 days and the eighth so far this year.<\/p>\n<p> President Lee Jae-myung emphasized &#8220;self-reliant defense&#8221; at a Cabinet meeting that morning. He urged a transition to a next-generation, high-tech military, stronger support for the K-defense industry and deeper multilateral security ties. &#8220;Only with an independent will for defense will our friends respect us, and our alliances remain stronger,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korea launched short-range missiles into the West Sea, prompting
