North Korea’s second attempt to put a spy satellite into orbit was unsuccessful, according to state-run media. This comes less than three months after the country’s first failed try. Reports indicate that North Korean authorities have expressed their determination to make another attempt in the future.

The failed satellite launch had immediate repercussions in Japan, which issued an emergency warning through its J-alert system. Residents of Okinawa Prefecture were urged to seek shelter indoors. The alert was subsequently lifted after approximately 20 minutes. Hirokazu Matsuno, the Chief Cabinet Secretary of Japan, held an emergency news conference where he stated that it was unclear whether any debris from the launch had fallen into Japanese territory. However, no immediate reports of damage were received.

The details surrounding the satellite launch, such as the specific type of satellite and its intended purpose, were not provided in the original article. Additionally, there is no mention of the specific reasons for the failures of North Korea’s two recent attempts. It is worth noting that North Korea’s satellite launches are often met with international concern due to concerns over the country’s nuclear ambitions.

While this rewritten article retains the key facts from the original piece, it does not include the author’s information, contact details, sources, or direct quotes. The content has been reformatted into short paragraphs for easier readability.
