>The intercontinental ballistic missile is believed to have fallen outside Japan’s exclusive economic zone in the Sea of Japan at around 8:20 a.m., the Defense Ministry said.
>There have been no reports of damage to aircraft or vessels so far.
>The missile was apparently fired on a steep or “lofted” trajectory to test capabilities, Japanese government officials said.
