More than 24 hours after a missile test reportedly ended in a fiery failure over Pyongyang on Wednesday, North Korea had yet to say anything about the incident. South Korea said a presumed ballistic missile exploded mid-air shortly after it was launched from the international airport near Pyongyang on Wednesday morning.
North Korea’s government did not immediately comment on the South’s report, and state media had made no mention of a test a day later. Strikingly, no photos or named eye witnesses had emerged publicly.
