North Korea fired a "possible ballistic missile" on Thursday into the waters east of Japan, the Japanese Prime Minister's office said in a statement posted online.
South Korea also reported the launch, with the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff saying in a statement that Seoul was still trying to determine how many projectiles had been fired.
