Seoul: North Korea on Tuesday twice fired "unidentified projectiles" toward the sea, even as it proposed talks with the US in late September, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported.

The projectiles - the latest to be fired since July - were launched in an easterly direction from inland South Pyongan province, Yonhap cited South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff as saying.
