Breaking! North Korea Launches Missile at Japan: Is the U.S. Next?"Testing an ICBM [intercontinental ballistic missile] represents a new escalation of the threat to the United States, our allies and partners, the region and the world. Global action is required to stop a global threat." — Secretary of State Rex Tillerson (Japan) — [CBN News] North Korea has launched "one unidentified missile" from its northern Jagang province, the South Korean Defense Ministry announced in a statement.

Citing the Japanese chief cabinet secretary, Yoshihide Suga, The Associated Press reports the missile "flew for about 45 minutes and appeared to have landed in the waters of Japan's exclusive economic zone." There have been no immediate reports of damage. The missile launch follows a string of tests by the North Korean regime this year, the most recent of which came earlier this month. That test marked a milestone for Pyongyang: a successful intercontinental missile launch. "Testing an ICBM [intercontinental ballistic missile] represents a new escalation of the threat to the United States, our allies and partners, the region and the world," Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said in a statement at the time. "Global action is required to stop a global threat." Japan's Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, has called an emergency meeting of senior officials. "We will immediately analyze information and do our utmost to protect the safety of the Japanese people," he said. CBN News
