U.S., Japan confirm N. Korea's firing of short-range projectiles

美 "北 단거리 발사체 보도 인지"... 日 "단거리 미사일로 확인"

The U.S. and Japan have both confirmed North Korea's firing of short-range projectiles.
In an email interview with Seoul-based Yonhap News Agency, a senior Trump administration official said... Washington is aware of the situation... but declined to comment further.
A senior Japanese official told Tokyo-based Kyodo News... that Japan understands the projectiles to be short-range missiles.
But the official said they had no impact on Japan's national security because they did not go as far as Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone.
