North Korea announced on Wednesday the launch of an unidentified missile, but the launch apparently failed immediately after its launch, the South Korean military said.
Reuters reports that a missile was launched from the Sunan area near Pyongyang but it exploded before reaching a height of 12 miles. The U.S. Army Pacific Command has announced that a ballistic missile has been launched.
Following previous launches, Pyongyang announced that it was preparing to launch a military observation satellite. But Seoul and Washington believe it is an experimental launch of the Wassong-17 which is an intercontinental ballistic missile and its launch serves as a cover for the launch of the military satellite into space.
