Russia sez:
A missile fired by North Korea Friday appeared to be a "medium-range" weapon, the Russian military said, as the US asserted Pyongyang had launched a second ICBM.
In a statement cited by Russian agencies the defence ministry in Moscow said that according to flight parameters detected by its warning systems the "characteristics were those of a medium-range ballistic missile".
It reached an altitude of 681 kilometres (420 miles) and flew for 732 kilometres before crashing down into the Sea of Japan without posing any threat to Russia, the statement said.

Pentagon sez:
Although the Pentagon had yet to make final assessments, defense analysts said the missile appeared the most powerful that Pyonyang has ever tested.
They estimated that it flew more than 1,800 miles into space before crashing down into the Sea of Japan off the coast of Hokkaido, the northern most of Japan’s four main islands.
Even though the Pentagon had yet to make final assessments, defense analysts estimated that the ICBM reached an altitude of more than 1,800 miles into outer space. If that trajectory were flattened out, putting the U.S. mainland well within range.

After the Pentagon and South Korea’s presidential office assessed that the missile was another ICBM, the U.S. said its top general called his South Korean counterpart to discuss “military response options.” The missile traveled about 1,000 kilometers (621 miles), according to Captain Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman.
Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said the missile, which was launched late on Friday night, flew for about 45 minutes and landed in the country’s exclusive economic zone. South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said it reached an altitude of about 3,700 kilometers, which is almost 1,000 kilometers higher than the July 4 test.
