Pyongyang didn't initially comment on the launch but it followed the second test of what the North called a hypersonic missile – a claim Seoul cast doubts on.
The early-morning launch came as the United Nations Security Council met in New York to discuss last week's test of what Pyongyang called a hypersonic missile, although Seoul has cast doubt on that claim.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told reporters it was"extremely regrettable that North Korea continues to launch missiles."to the one it issued in response to last week's launch. A man walks past a television screen showing a news broadcast with file footage of a North Korean missile test, at a railway station in Seoul on January 11, 2022, after North Korea fired a"suspected ballistic missile" into the sea, South Korea's military said, less than a week after Pyongyang reported testing a hypersonic missile.There were no immediate reports of damage to Japanese aircraft or vessels, according to Japanese government spokesman Hirokazu Matsuno.
