Tokyo - The United States has activated its missile defence system to deal with a possible North Korean missile test, Kyodo News agency reported on Tuesday, citing a report.

The US is considering intercepting the missile if North Korea goes ahead with the test, Kyodo said, quoting The Washington Times.

The report came after Pyongyang said on Tuesday it was free to conduct missile tests despite a self-imposed moratorium, saying it was not bound by prior agreements and that outsiders had no right to criticise its actions.
