Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida commented on the information about the launch of a ballistic missile by the DPRK towards the Sea of Japan. Writes about this TASS.
“It is extremely unfortunate that North Korea continues to carry out rocket launches as it did last year,” Kisisda said. According to him, Japan continues to study information about the launch of the rocket and is not yet able to provide accurate data on the place of the fall, the altitude of the rocket and other details.
The prime minister ordered the government to act in three directions: conduct a detailed analysis of the situation, including the safety of air and sea transport communications, inform people in detail and in a timely manner, and take all necessary measures in case of unforeseen circumstances.
The Japanese Ministry of Defense is checking whether there was any damage from the launch. An emergency headquarters has also been set up under the Japanese government to collect information about the launch.
Earlier, the Japanese Coast Guard reported that the DPRK launched a ballistic missile towards the Sea of Japan. The military noted that the rocket fell into the sea and warned fishing vessels to be careful not to approach the wreckage.
South Korea reported the launch of an unidentified shell from the Korean Peninsula.
