SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korea fired a ballistic missile off its east coast on Tuesday, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said.
The Japanese government warned citizens to take cover after its coast guard reported on a suspected missile launch by North Korea.
The latest launch was Pyongyang’s fifth launch in a week, amid military muscle-flexing by the United States and South Korea, which staged trilateral anti-submarine exercises last week with Japanese naval forces.
