Despite international sanctions over its nuclear weapons programme, Pyongyang has already carried out two tests of what it said were hypersonic missiles this year, on January 5 and January 11.
North Korea has fired an unidentified projectile, South Korean and Japanese officials said Friday, the nuclear-armed country's third suspected weapons test in just over a week.
"North Korea fires unidentified projectile eastward," Seoul's Joint Chiefs of Staff said, without giving further details.
And Japan's coastguard said it had detected "the launch from North Korea of what appears to be a ballistic missile or missiles at 14h55".
A coastguard spokesman told AFP it was still analysing where it fell and whether it was one object or multiple.
