UK Prime Minister Theresa May vowed to build international pressure on North Korea over its "reckless provocation" as she traveled to Japan for talks on the crisis.
The Prime Minister, who was "outraged" by the launch of a missile by Pyongyang which flew over Japan, said she would discuss the situation with her counterpart Shinzo Abe during the visit, the London-based News and Star online newspaper reported.
The missile is the latest in a series of test launches by Kim Jong Un's regime but the trajectory over the Japanese island of Hokkaido increases the tensions in a region already on heightened alert.
US President Donald Trump said that "all options are on the table" in terms of a response to the latest launch.
As she prepared to fly to Japan, Mrs May said: "This action by North Korea is reckless provocation. These are illegal tests and we strongly condemn them.
