Japan take defensive steps as North Korea prepare to fire test missile

There are reports North Korea is planning to fire a test missile into the Pacific Ocean as early as tomorrow.

Japan has taken defensive steps to shoot down any missiles which fly over its territory.

Last week, foreign diplomats in the capital Pyongyang were told their safety could not be guaranteed if a war broke out with South Korea.

Reporter Mark Stone is on Yeonp-yeong Island and believes the threat of an attack by North Korea is highly unlikely.
