The missile was fired from Pyongyang and has not yet reached a discernible destination. It is unknown what kind of missile it was and whether it was fully armed.

Japan, once again, will not attempt to shoot down the missile, for reasons unknown.
Does this increase the tensions, or have we already reached a topping off where we just don't know what to do and this is another one in the series of provocations, and certainly not the last?

According to your source it hit the ocean. More posturing.

...it didn't hit anything yet, that's why it's news. It's in the air. For a few more minutes after this post. Japan just said that this is where they predict it will go.

South Korea simply said it's on it's way East.
aaand now it's somewhere in the ocean.
Japan’s public broadcaster NHK said the missile passed over the northern island of Hokkaido ans landed in the Pacific about 2,000 km east of Japan. The government said there was no danger to people or shipping rom missile debris.

Oldenfranck wrote:So North Korea's missiles fail every now and then, and crash earlier than expected. So what happens when the inevitable occurs, and one stalls over the Japanese mainland and crashes? With a general warhead, it would kill, and even without one, it could still hit someone or fall on a building and hit people, or catch on fire with its additional fuel and kill people. Is that the red line for war? Make no mistake, it could be tomorrow, or it could be 5 years from now, but it will probably happen sooner or later. What happens then?
