North Korea has fired an unidentified ballistic missile from North Pyong'an Province that jetted into waters east of the Korean Peninsula, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The projectile may have landed in Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone, which extends 200 nautical miles from its coastline, official from Japan's Ministry of Defense told CNN.
The launch comes just after President Donald Trump spoke to the leaders of both China and Japan, two important regional actors in the ongoing standoff with Pyongyang over its nuclear ambitions.
