The Japanese government has said North Korea has staged a fresh missile test, with the projectile flying over northern Japan before landing in the sea early on Tuesday.
No effort was made by the Japanese to shoot down the missile, which flew over Japanese territory at dawn.
The missile is reported to have broken into three pieces before it landed, local media reported.
On Sunday North Korea fired three short‑range missiles into the sea.
In the latest incident the Japanese government warned people in the missile's flight range to take precautions, but public broadcaster NHK said there was no signs of any damage.
