South Korea's Yonhap News Agency reported the Democratic People's Republic of Korea fired artillery toward waters near the disputed maritime border, again on Thursday.

It's the third time Pyongyang has fired in two days. It fired scores of artillery shells on Wednesday morning and again in the afternoon.

The shells were sent into waters near the contentious sea border called Northern Limit Line, off the west coast of the Korean peninsula.

It's within the range of no-sail zones declared by the DPRK a day ago.
