North Korea fired a suspected intercontinental ballistic missile that landed near Japanese territorial waters Friday, its neighbours said - the second such major weapons test this month that shows its determination to perfect weapons systems targeting the US mainland.The launch was the latest in a barrage of weapons tests that North Korea has conducted in recent months in response to what it calls US hostility.Some experts say the North is able to perform such a spree of weapons tests partly because China and Russia have opposed US moves to toughen sanctions on North Korea.
