Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said on Friday that a North Korean missile had crashed into waters within the country's exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the northern region of Hokkaido.
Kishida told reporters in Bangkok that a ballistic missile launched by North Korea fell in our EEZ west of Hokkaido. Describing the missile attack as unacceptable, he said that there were no reports of damage to ships or aircraft.

Minister Cho Son had warned

Washington has been seeking to boost regional security cooperation and intensify joint military exercises in response to growing provocations from the nuclear-armed North, which sees all such moves as evidence of US aggression.
Biden had discussed with Jinping
US President Joe Biden discussed North Korea's recent missile tests with Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping earlier this week and also spoke with the leaders of Tokyo and Seoul.
North Korea was also high on the agenda when the leaders of China and Japan held face-to-face talks for the first time in three years on Thursday on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum in Bangkok.
Experts said the launch of one of North Korea's most powerful weapons was a clear sign that leader Kim Jong Un was displeased with the recent talks. Han Kwon-hee, manager of the Missile Strategy Forum, said it is now speculated to be an ICBM, and if so, it sends a clear message to the US and Japan.
