SEOUL: North Korea fired a suspected intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) Friday, Seoul's military said, its second launch in two days, which Japan said had splashed down in its exclusive economic zone.

Seoul's Joint Chiefs of Staff said it had 'detected a presumed long-range ballistic missile around 10:15 (0115 GMT) fired from the Sunan area in Pyongyang towards the East Sea,' referring to the body of water also known as the Sea of Japan.
