The Offices of Guam Homeland Security and Civil Defense (GHS/OCD), in conjunction with the Mariana Regional Fusion Center (MRFC), federal and military partners, continue to monitor events surrounding the region including reports of multiple short-range missiles launched out of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK).
 
South Korean officials stated several short-range projectiles were launched this morning from the DPRK’s Hodo peninsula, which is located on the eastern coast of Pyongyang. The projectiles reportedly flew 70 to 200 kilometers before landing in the sea.
  
“There is no indication the reported tests pose an immediate threat to Guam or the Marianas,” stated Homeland Security Advisor Tim Aguon. “GHS/OCD, along with local and federal partners, will continue to monitor the events surrounding the region.”
