The phoenix flag, the symbol of the presidential office of Korea, flies at the Blue House in central Seoul on Dec. 29, 2025, officially ending the Yongsan era after three years and seven months.

The presidential Office of National Security denounced North Korea's launches of ballistic missiles on Saturday as a violation of United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions, calling for a halt.

The office issued the message after holding an emergency security assessment meeting shortly after North Korea fired around 10 ballistic missiles toward the East Sea.

"The latest ballistic missile launches by North Korea constitute a provocation that violates UNSC resolutions, and we call for an immediate halt," the office said in a press release.

The office also reported details of the missile launches and Seoul's countermeasures to President Lee Jae Myung, it said.
