North Korea missile launch sparks ‘evacuation’ sirens in Japan – BBC News


A missile launch by North Korea sparked confusion in northern Japan, where an evacuation order was issued and then retracted within 30 minutes.

Sirens blared across Hokkaido and residents were told to "evacuate immediately" on Thursday morning.

Authorities said the missile did not land near the island and withdrew the alert.

Tensions have been growing in the region, as North Korea has already fired 27 missiles this year.
