North Korea fires another ballistic missile, heightening tensions

North Korea has fired yet another intercontinental ballistic missile.

Reports suggest the launch was directed towards the east of the country and has fallen into the ocean inside Japan’s Exclusive Economic Zone.

It comes a day after Pyongyang fired a short-range ballistic missile into waters off the east coast.

Tensions between North Korea, the U.S. and western allies are at an all time high.

The U.S. Air Base located in northern Japan told all personnel to seek immediate shelter.

Japan’s prime minister, Fumio Kishida, has condemned the missile launch.

“We naturally lodged a strong protest against North Korea, which has repeated its provocations with unprecedented frequency,” Kishida said.

“We have told (Pyongyang) that we absolutely cannot tolerate such actions.”

It’s the second suspected test launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile this month alone.

South Korea and Japan are now concerned of a potential nuclear test.

According to a tally from CNN, the nation has carried out tests on 34 seperate days this year.
