North Korea has made a fresh flurry of rocket launches with three fired including an intercontinental ballistic missile that forced the Japanese government to issue evacuation alerts.
It is the latest in a series of weapons tests that has raised tensions with North Korea also making veiled threats to use nuclear weapons against the United States and South Korea this week.
The Japanese government initially said at least one of the missiles flew over its northern territory, but later revised its assessment, saying there were no overflies.
