North Korea tests seventh missile, says South Korea


Sat, Jul 4 03:51 PMSeoul, July 4 (DPA) North Korea fired its seventh missile from its eastern coast Saturday,
the South Korean defence ministry said, as Pyongyang raised tension in the Korean
peninsula.
The missiles, with a range of 400 to 500 km, were fired over the Sea of Japan, the ministry
said.
'It is a provocative act that clearly violates UN Security Council resolutions 1695, 1718, and
1874 that bar North Korea's every activity related to ballistic missiles,' South Korea's
foreign ministry said in a statement, Yonhap national news agency reported.
