North Korea moves second missile to east coast, and gives Britain five days to evacuate embassy
North Korea has shifted a missile with “considerable range” to its east coast, South Korea’s defence minister has said.
The range of the missile is unknown, and the rogue state has moved the missile with a range of 3,000km (1,800m) to the same area which is within firing distance of Japan – and claimed it would be ‘merciless’ against its enemies.
The US has responded to the rising threat of North Korea by moving missile defence shields to Guam.
All government embassies have been instructed to evacuate staff from Pyongyang after dictator Kim Jong-un warned he could not ‘guarantee the safety of foreigners’.

Pope Francis: Stopping child sexual abuse key to ‘credibility’ of Catholic Church
Pope Francis wants the Catholic Church to “act decisively” to root out sexual abuse of children by priests and ensure the perpetrators are punished, the Vatican said on Friday.
Francis, in a meeting with the Holy See’s doctrinal chief, Archbishop Gerhard Müller, had declared that combating sexual abuse was important “for the Church and its credibility”, a statement said.
He inherited a Church mired in problems and a major scandal over priestly abuse of children. It was believed to be the first time Francis had taken up the issue of sex abuse with a senior member of his staff since his election on March 13.
Sunderland’s new manager Paolo Di Canio has denied that he has fascist links
Paolo Di Canio took over as Sunderland manager at the beginning of the week after the club fired Martin O’Neill.
Fans have expressed their anger at Di Canio’s past. In his 2000 autobiography, Di Canio wrote that he was fascinated by Benito Mussolini and, in 2005, celebrated with the far-right “ultras” at Lazio, his former club in Rome, by making a fascist salute.
His appointment prompted David Miliband, the former Labour Party MP to immediately resign from his post as a club director.
