The Security Council issued a statement, agreeing to take "significant measures" in response to the latest series of launches. North Korea has test-fired several ballistic missiles in July and August, including one from a submarine towards Japan on Wednesday.
The North Korean leader Kim Jong-un said the submarine-launched missile test was the "greatest success", putting the US mainland and the Pacific "within the striking range". But Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the missile breached his country's Air Defence Identification Zone and condemned what he called an "unforgivable, reckless act" and a grave threat to Japan's security.
