SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s military says North Korea has launched two unidentified projectiles into the sea.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff says the North Korean projectiles fired from its South Pyongan province on Tuesday morning flew toward the waters off its east coast.

It gave no further details.

The reported launches came hours after North Korea said it is willing to resume nuclear diplomacy with the United States in late September but that Washington must come to the negotiating table with acceptable new proposals.

North Korea carried out super-large multiple rocket launcher test on Tuesday: KCNA

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the testing of a super-large multiple rocket launcher on Tuesday, North Korean state media KCNA said on Wednesday.

North Korea fired a new round of short-range projectiles on Tuesday, South Korean officials said, only hours after it signaled a new willingness to resume stalled denuclearization talks with the United States in late September.

Kim, who had guided the testing of the same multiple rocket launcher before, said its capabilities have been “finally verified in terms of combat operation,” and what remains to be done with the rocket launcher is a “running fire test,” KCNA said, without elaborating on what the test would entail.

Kim ordered future tasks and ways to “steadily” attain cutting-edge national defense to officials that had joined him, including senior officials such as his sister Kim Yo Jong, KCNA said.

...therefore more tests may be required. One of the missiles may have failed and the usual boasting was absent in the North Korean news release.

Also evaluated at Channel A News Top Ten. A third missile appears to have been a misfire according to evaluation of the North Korean pictures:

They reported that the furthest missile range observed was 330 km. A third missile was not observed. The Korean Joint Chiefs spokesperson said the US and South Korea are in the process of evaluating the unknown missile type.
