North Korea fired at least one ballistic missile Sunday morning - its first major weapons test since early June - as the Japan-based USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier visited South Korea for joint military drills just days before U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris visits the region.
The Japanese Defense Minister Yasukazu Hamada said at least one apparent ballistic missile had been fired, hitting a peak altitude of roughly 50 kilometers. Hamada said the weapon appeared to fly on an irregular trajectory and that the ministry had estimated it would have traveled some 400 km if it had flown normally.
