The National Security Office held an emergency security situation review meeting on Thursday (October 29) with relevant agencies, including the Ministry of National Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, regarding North Korea's launch of around 10 ballistic missiles from the Wonsan area into the East Sea.

During the meeting, the National Security Office checked South Korea's response posture and analyzed and assessed the security impact of the launches, which came about two weeks after the previous launch on October 12, Cheong Wa Dae said in a press release.

In addition, the office urged officials to make every effort in taking necessary measures in response to the missile launches.

In particular, the National Security Office emphasized that North Korea's repeated ballistic missile launches violate United Nations Security Council resolutions and constitute a grave act that does not help in managing the current situation at all, urging Pyongyang to halt them immediately.
