South North’s Yonhap News Agency also reported that North Korea had fired a ballistic missile off its east coast, citing South Korea’s military.

The North Korean missile appears to have landed outside Japan’s exclusive economic zone, Japanese public broadcaster NHK reported citing multiple defence ministry officials.
