UN Security Council to hold Emergency Meeting Wednesday over North Korea’s launch of missile over Japan

The United Nations Security Council will hold an emergency meeting Wednesday to discuss North Korea's test firing of a ballistic missile over Japan, WOA reports.

The open meeting was requested by the United States. "We must limit the DPRK's ability to advance its unlawful ballistic missile and weapons of mass destruction programs," Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, tweeted.

Hirokazu Matsuno, Japan's chief Cabinet secretary, told reporters earlier Tuesday the North Korean missile was launched at 7:22 a.m. and splashed into the Pacific Ocean outside Japan's exclusive economic zone 22 minutes later. It prompted Tokyo to evacuate some residents in the northern prefectures of Hokkaido and Aomori on Tuesday morning.

South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff called the North Korean projectile an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM), launched from North Korea's northern Jagang area, flying a distance of 4,500 kilometers with a flight altitude of 970 kilometers.
