North Korea fires missile over Japan as citizens warned to take cover

North Korea fired a missile over Japan early on Tuesday morning, officials said, as Tokyo warned citizens in the north of the country to take cover.

Japan's warning system kicked in, advising citizens on its northern Hokkaido island to take precautions, as the missile headed towards land in what was a significant escalation of Kim Jong-un's military posturing.

The missile later broke into three pieces and landed in the sea. It flew for around 1,700 miles, reaching a maximum altitude of 350 miles, South Korean officials said. The Pentagon confirmed the launch.


Nothing on his twitter account YET...I guess he hasn't heard the news....
