Details are sketchy at the moment, but it has been reported by the South’s Defense Ministry that North Korea has fired artillery shells into the sea. How much artillery, what they may have been firing at (if anything), and how close to disputed borders the firing occurred at has yet to be release.
Update: Yonhap News is reporting that 110 shells were fired, all on the North side of the Northern Limit Line of the Yellow Sea. It is still unclear whether they were firing at anything specific, or if this simply was a demonstration of force. The South’s Navy is on heightened alert.
