North Korea: What are the military options?
President Trump has said "all options are on the table" after North Korea fired a missile over Japan. So what could military action against Kim Jong-un's regime actually look like?
As a ballistic missile passed over the Japanese island of Hokkaido residents were warned to take cover.
The launch was a provocative act, which has been followed by warnings from the North Korean regime that it was just a "first step".
The UN and several nations have imposed sanctions on North Korea, while President Trump said he was considering the next steps.
But while the US has unrivalled military strength, the range of options it actually has against the hermit country are limited.
