North Korea has fired a missile that passed over northern Japan today.

The government’s J-Alert text message warning system advised people in the area to take precautions and move to a ‘sturdy building or basement’.

The Japanese military did not attempt to shoot down the missile, which passed over Japanese territory around 6.06am local time.

It broke into three pieces off the coast of Hokkaido and landed in the Pacific Ocean, around 700 miles east of Cape Erimo, after travelling 1,700m in eight minutes.

It is the first time North Korea has fired a projectile over Japan since 2009.

The launch, from Pyongyang, comes after Seoul’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) told South Korean lawmakers at a closed door parliamentary session that it has detected signs of the secretive state preparing for another nuclear test at its Punggye-ri underground test site.
