South Korean troops fired warning shots at an "unidentified object" flying across the heavily fortified border from North Korea Tuesday afternoon, the South's military announced.
A defense source said the military fired more than 90 K-3 machine gun rounds, adding it may have been a drone.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency, without citing a source, reported that South Korea fired about 90 machine gun rounds into the air and toward North Korea. It said South Korea was analyzing whether a North Korean drone had crossed the border.
Seems like fat boy wants war.
How can diplomacy work when Kim Jong-un continually escalates the tension?

Where does it say North Korea fired a projectile at South Korea? I only see, from the information, that South Korea fired at an Unidentified Flying Object flying over the border from North Korea, they were unable to identify it.
The South Korean fired warning shots Tuesday at an "unidentified object" flying across the heavily fortified border from North Korea Tuesday afternoon according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The military detected the object traversing the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) southward in the Chorwon area in the eastern province of Gangwon at around 4 pm.
In January last year, a North Korean drone flew over the MDL into the western section of the demilitarized zone. The South opened machine gun fire on it.

Sure, but now we have ballistic missile tests from North Korea and continuing development of their nuclear arms buildup. It will be a big deal if Kim-Jong-un's weekly provocations sparks a confrontation with either South Korea, China, Japan or the US.

Flying a drone over your enemy's territory , if it did go over the Souths territory ,is not an indication someone wants war.

The South did the shooting.
War will start with an attack on the North not the other way round.
