North Korea fires ballistic missile into sea of Japan

North Korea on Friday launched a surface-to-air missile into waters off its east coast, the South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said Friday.
The North fired off the anti-aircraft missile from South Hamgyong Province in the country's northeastern area. The missile was fired toward the East Sea, Yonhap news agency reported.
The North's provocation came as President Park Geun-hye held a three-way summit with her counterparts from the United States and Japan on Thursday in Washington to discuss how to deal with the North's nuclear weapons program.
Also on Friday, South Korea's defense ministry said that the North is continuing to jam GPS signals in South Korea in an attempt to raise tensions on the peninsula.
