		</div><p>A town in western Japan has conducted an evacuation drill amid rising fears of a North Korean ballistic missile strike.</p>
<p>More than 280 residents and schoolchildren from Abu, a small town with a population of just over 3,400 on the north-western coast, rushed to designated school buildings to seek shelter on Sunday after sirens from loudspeakers warned of a possible missile flight and debris.</p>
<p>The drill follows three consecutive weeks of North Korean missile tests.</p>
<p>Last week, a missile splashed into the sea inside Japan&#8217;s 200-mile exclusive economic zone off the country&#8217;s western coast.</p>
<p>It was the second such drill since March, when Tokyo instructed local governments to review their contingency plans and conduct evacuation exercises.</p>
<p>A similar, city-organised drill was conducted in the neighbouring Fukuoka region and others are planned over the next few months.</p>
