SEOUL, Oct. 19 (Yonhap) -- North Korea fired an unidentified projectile toward the East Sea on Tuesday, South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said, in a move that may dampen Seoul's push to resume dialogue.
The details on the latest launch were not immediately available.
The launch follows a series of Pyongyang's weapons tests, including the launch of a hypersonic missile last month.
