On Sept. 15, North Korea launched a ballistic missile that flew over Hokkaido, Japan. This is the second time a North Korean missile passed over Japan’s airspace. Less than two weeks ago, North Korea claimed to have successfully detonated a hydrogen bomb, representing a major leap in Pyongyang’s nuclear capability.
