SKorea says NKorea fires 6 missiles off east coast
  Updated at: 1410 PST, Saturday, July 04, 2009  
  SEOUL: South Korea says North Korea has fired a sixth missile off its eastern coast.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff say five missiles were fired earlier Saturday and the sixth around 4:10 p.m. (0710 GMT).

The launches come two days after North Korea fired four short-range missiles.

The test-firing could further escalate tensions in the region as the U.S. tries to muster support for tough enforcement of a U.N. resolution imposed on the communist regime for its May nuclear test.

A South Korean news agency quotes military officials assaying the missiles fired Saturday appear to be Scuds. South Korea's military said North Korea's Scuds are considered short-range.
