north korea has fought another 3 missiles the latest in a string of weapons tests. it comes a day off to pyongyang launched $23.00 missiles. the latest were too short and one long range. japan initially urged citizens to seek shelter, sang a missile had flown over the territory, but it has since walked back. that warning, did you have to go to hush us out? at the manila we detected that the missile that was launched around 7 40 am might fly over japan, so we put out an alert. but later we have confirmed that the missile did not fly over japan and disappeared in the skies above the sea of japan. beside, so we would like to rectify our announcement and guy, joe goon. oh, rob mcbride isn't sold for us and robert was initially some confusion over exactly where the missiles had landed. what can you expect exactly with things that stand at the moments? yeah,

we're learning more details about the trajectories of these 3 missiles, 2 of them were short range, ballistic missiles, the kind of missiles that north korea has been testing pretty much continuously since the start of this year. they are set to a loan eastwood's around 330 kilometers, crashing into the sea that separates the korean peninsula from japan. the 1st message that was detected though, and this is the most significant miss out because this is a further escalation, if escalating tensions here on the peninsula. it's built to have been an intercontinental ballistic missile. one of these longer range missiles, but north korea, with testing back in 2017, when the whole peninsula was almost on the brink of a conflict. these are the missiles that comply much of a longer ranges and reach potentially the continental united states, desisted for testing these weapons. for years it did is suspected of firing that icbm earlier this year. and this, it would seem to be a 2nd icbm being 5. this year it was detected,

taking off from soon on area. this is the location of the apple that serves young young just outside of the city. it is said to have flown through 760 kilometers, east woods, but reaching quite a high trajectory of a to 2000 kilometers altitude. this was on a very high trajectory and it is thought that after the 2nd stage of this flight, it's somehow failed. it disappeared from people's radar and they couldn't detect it anymore in japan. but that was a feeling as though either it was intended to crash into the sea between north korea, japan or possibly fly over the top of japan. that's why these northern prefecture is in japan. did raise the alert for a time, but they did certainly raise the tension levels here. it has been roundly condemned by the united states when d. erm and the u. s. deputy secretary of state has had a conversation early thursday with her counterparts condemning this latest action.
