Two ballistic missiles fired by North Korea landed in waters within Japan’s exclusive economic zone, a Tokyo defense ministry official tells reporters.

“Two ballistic missiles fell inside the EEZ,” the official says. The zone extends up to 200 nautical miles from Japan’s coast, beyond the limits of its territorial waters.
