North Korea launched multiple ballistic missiles toward the East Sea from near Pyongyang on Sunday morning. This marked the North's first weapons test of the year, occurring just before South Korean President Lee Jae-myung's summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Seoul and Washington assessed it as non-threatening but urged Pyongyang to halt provocations.
