N.Korea conducts failed missile launch, a day after military parade

The missile blew up almost immediately according to U.S. Pacific Command

North Korea attempted to launch a missile on Sunday morning, local time, though the test ended in failure, the U.S. and South Korean governments said.

The failed launch took place near Sinpo, on the DPRK's east coast and comes just one day after the 105th Day of the Sun military parade in Pyongyang.
