Japan Blames Error for Frightening N. Korean Missile Launch Message
WHOOPS!
Thousands of people in Hokkaido were told to evacuate or take immediate cover because a North Korean missile was on the way. It turns out there was no real danger.
The Japanese government claimed that its missile alert system malfunctioned when it notified thousands of residents in the northern Hokkaido region to “seek shelter immediately” on Thursday morning after North Korea launched at least one suspected ballistic missile.
