(CNN)North Korea has fired a ballistic missile over northern Japan for the second time in less than a month, South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said Friday.
The unidentified ballistic missile was launched from the district of Sunan in the North Korean capital of Pyongyang, home to the country's main airport, the South Korean military said.
The missile flew about 3,700 kilometers (2,300 miles) and reached an altitude of 770 kilometers (480) miles. It landed in the Pacific Ocean, Japan said.
The US Pacific Command said its initial assessment indicated that North Korea had fired an intermediate-range ballistic missile. However, Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono told a reporter that Tokyo believes it was an intercontinental ballistic missile, according to Japanese public broadcaster NHK.

A government warning, known as the J-Alert, said that "a missile" had passed over Hokkaido, northern Japan, before landing in the Pacific, NHK reported. "The government is advising people to stay away from anything that could be missile debris," the broadcaster said.
At a hastily convened press conference, Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga called the launch an "excessive provocation." The government was convening a National Security Council Meeting at the Prime Minister's office, the country's Defense Ministry said.
North Korea's last missile test, on August 29, was also fired from near the Pyongyang airport and overflew northern Japan.
