The test was the seventh missile test conducted by North Korea this year and marked the sixth ballistic missile test, according to reports.
Earlier last week, two short-range ballistic missiles were believed to have been fired into the eastern seaboard, and what is believed to be a cruise missile, had been fired into the same sea a few days earlier.
In early January, North Korea claimed to have successfully tested two hypersonic missiles, and then another from a train carriage, on January 14.
