SEOUL, Aug. 26 (Xinhua) -- The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) test-fired three short-range projectiles into its eastern waters amid the ongoing South Korea-U.S. war game, Seoul's military said Saturday.
The DPRK launched several unidentified short-range projectiles into the East Sea off the country's northeast region from an area near Gitdaeryong in Gangwon province at about 6:49 a.m. local time (2149 GMT Friday)
cheap adidas nmd city sock sale , according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS). The Gangwon province borders South Korea's northeastern region.
The JCS said the projectiles flew about 250 km, but what the projectiles are was not known immediately.
It said the military authorities of South Korea and the United States were jointly analyzing the test-launches.
According to Yonhap news agency report citing an unknown source, a total of three projectiles were test-launched.
The first and third ones traveled around 250 km
cheap adidas nmd city sock , and the second one exploded in the air immediately after taking off.
The test-firings came as the combined forces of South Korea and the United States kicked off their joint annual war game, codenamed Ulchi Freedom Guardian (UFG), on Monday. The war game would last until next Thursday.
The computerized command post military exercise has been denounced by the DPRK as a rehearsal for northward invasion. The scale of this year's war game was smaller than last year's.
The war game was the first large-scale South Korea-U.S. military drill after the DPRK's tests in July of what it called an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)
cheap adidas nmd chukka suede sale , called Hwasong-14.
Tensions de-escalated on the Korean Peninsula as Pyongyang and Washington stopped trading belligerent rhetoric.
U.S. President Donald Trump warned Pyongyang of "fire and fury," and the DPRK warned Washington that it could fire intermediate-range ballistic missiles targeting the waters off the U.S. island of Guam in the Pacific.
The DPRK delayed its missile strike plan to see what the U.S. would do next, and Trump praised it as a "wise and well-reasoned" decision.
The DPRK test-firings were immediately reported to South Korean President Moon Jae-in who ordered the convening of the National Security Council (NSC) meeting of the presidential Blue House.
Chung Eui-yong
cheap adidas nmd chukka suede , top national security advisor to President Moon, chaired the meeting for about an hour earlier in the day.
Senior presidential press secretary Yoon Young-chan told a press briefing that the DPRK projectiles were estimated to have been improved 300-mm multiple rocket launchers, saying the exact details were under study by the military.

BULIISA， Uganda， Dec. 30 (Xinhua) -- Prices may rise and fall， but in the eyes of 76-year-old Michael Zade， a Ugandan farmer， the crop has never failed its job as the family's breadwinner.
Over the last 40 years， Zade has been growing cotton， a practice he got from his father， in the remote mid-western district of Buliisa. For him， the crop paid tuition fees for his five children and funded the construction of a permanent house.
Cotton is Uganda's third largest export crop after coffee and tea， as well as the main source of income for some 250，000 households like Zade's.
For many of them， hopes are high that the industry would embrace a boom after the Ugandan government launched a campaign to support cotton and other local industries.
GOOD OLD DAYS
Before the onset of stiff competition from Asia， Uganda's textile industry had been a flourishing industry way back to the 1960s.
Zade refers to the time as the "good old days" when a good cotton harvest meant merry making for the whole village.
There were structures and systems right from growing to marketing cotton， and extension workers could traverse villages teaching farmers how to plant and harvest cotton.
The price of cotton at the farm-gate was paid by the ginneries or co-operatives in most cases， and the government would provide a subsidy. This system always encouraged farmers as a good price was guaranteed.
At the national level there was the Lint Marketing Board (LMB)， which had the monopoly to trade in all the lint and cotton seed. As a result， production reached the highest level， of 470，000 bales of lint， in 196970， according to government figures.
During the early 1970s to mid-1980s， however， war and economic turmoil that befell Uganda disrupted the cotton production.
In order to revamp the industry， the government in 1994 liberalized the cotton sector， replacing the LMB with the Cotton Development Organization (CDO)， a state agency charged wi.
