North Korea has fired a ballistic missile that landed just 60 miles from Russia. The secretive nation launched the missile earlier today and it flew 700 km (430 miles) and reached an altitude of more than 2,000 km (1,245 miles).
The rocket stayed airborne for 30 minutes before dropping into the sea between North Korea’s east coast and Japan, which was around 60 miles from Russia. US President Donald Trump said the Kremlin would not be happy with the test.
‘With the missile impacting so close to Russian soil, in fact, closer to Russia than to Japan, the President cannot imagine that Russia is pleased,’ The White House said.
