North Korea has test-fired an unidentified ballistic missile into the Sea of Japan, according to South Korea’s military. The launch took place on Thursday evening. The move followed joint military exercises by South Korea and the US, which had ended earlier on Thursday. North Korea has previously responded to such exercises with missile tests. The country has also claimed to have recently tested a solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile and to have attempted to launch a spy satellite into space. Both events have been seen as major provocations.
