North Korea fired multiple ballistic missiles today, including a possible failed intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that triggered an alert for residents in parts of central and northern Japan to seek shelter

Despite an initial government warning that a missile had flown over Japan, Tokyo later said that was incorrect.

Japanese Defence Minister Yasukazu Hamada said the government lost track of the missile over the Sea of Japan, prompting it to correct its announcement that it had flown over Japan. It also demonstrates the threat from North Korea's unlawful weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programmes, Mr Price added.The launches came after Pyongyang demanded the United States and South Korea stop large-scale military exercises, saying such"military rashness and provocation can be no longer tolerated".

After today's ICBM launch, the allies agreed to extend the drills past tomorrow, when they were scheduled to end, South Korea's Air Force said in a statement. "We detected a launch that showed the potential to fly over Japan and therefore triggered the J Alert, but after checking the flight we confirmed that it had not passed over Japan," Mr Hamada told reporters.
