SEOUL, June 5 (Yonhap) -- The National Security Council will meet to discuss North Korea's latest missile launches Sunday, the presidential office said.
The meeting will be presided over by National Security Adviser Kim Sung-han, after which a plenary session presided over by President Yoon Suk-yeol could be held as well, "if necessary," the office said in a notice to reporters.
North Korea fired eight short-range ballistic missiles toward the East Sea earlier in the day in its 18th show of force this year, according to South Korea's military.
