Pyongyang fired a number of unidentified projectiles on Thursday afternoon, after a US envoy visited Seoul for discussions on breaking the nuclear deadlock, according to the Republic of Korea's Yonhap News Agency.

"North Korea (the Democratic People's Republic of Korea) fired unidentified projectiles eastward," Yonhap quoted the ROK's Joint Chiefs of Staff as saying, without giving further information.

The launch came days after the DPRK carried out a "strike drill" on Saturday and fired multiple shortrange projectiles. It was also after the US Special Representative on the DPRK, Stephen Biegun, arrived in Seoul on Wednesday for talks with the ROK officials on the allies' approach toward Pyongyang.
