Possible North Korea ballistic missile launch: Japan

Japan said Thursday that North Korea had launched a possible ballistic missile, hours after U.S. President Donald Trump said he would meet Pyongyang's leader Kim Jong Un later this year.

"North Korea has launched a suspected ballistic missile," the prime minister's office said in a post on X.
