The Japanese government has announced an evacuation due to the risk of a North Korean missile falling off Hokkaido. The authorities, through the J-Alert alert system, urged local residents to urgently take shelter in buildings, preferably durable, underground metro stations or shelters.
Earlier it was reported that the rocket fell outside the exclusive economic zone of the country.
In connection with the next launch, an emergency headquarters was created at the office of the Prime Minister of Japan.
This is the ninth ballistic missile test by North Korea this year. North Korea launched 37 ballistic missiles last year.
