North Korea fired a volley of missiles early Wednesday including a suspected intercontinental ballistic missile, just hours after US President Joe Biden left Asia after a trip overshadowed by Pyongyang's sabre-rattling.

Since the end of September, gasoline sales have been banned at North Korean commercial petrol stations. Exceptions are set for senior officials of the Korean Workers' Party, the government, the armed forces and the special services, the Japanese newspaper Asahi writes, quoted by TASS.
