North Korean Missiles Believed To Have Fallen
Japanese government officials say North Korea launched what may have been a ballistic missile Thursday morning.
But they confirmed that it did not fly over Japan, as earlier feared. Japan's Defense Ministry has confirmed that the missile has disappeared over the Sea of Japan.
The Japan Coast Guard has announced that North Korea may also have launched two additional missiles. All are believed to have fallen. The government continues to monitor the situation.
Prime Minister Kishida Fumio told reporters that North Korea's continuous launches over the past days are unacceptable.
Kishida said he has issued instructions to confirm any damage, provide appropriate information and analyze information. He said he will confirm the details.
