North Korea says it test-fired two types of strategic cruise missile from a submarine in the sea east of the peninsula on Wednesday. South Korean experts believe it may be the first launch from a large submarine unveiled in 2023. Seoul's military says it tracked the missiles throughout their flight. The test came just days after Pyongyang fired tactical ballistic missiles towards the same waters.
