For the first time in five years, North Korea launched a missile over Japan prompting a rare shelter warning to its residents.
Japan is enraged at the provocative move and the United States slammed North Korea's "dangerous and reckless" decision to launch a long-range ballistic missile over the country.
The authoritarian state has launched an unprecedented number of missiles in the last few weeks, as the United States has tried to deter them with military drills in the region with South Korea and Japan.
