Top Asian News 1:57 a.m. GMTSEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea fired an intermediate-range missile over Japan into the northern Pacific Ocean on Friday, U.S. and South Korean militaries said, its longest-ever such flight and a clear message of defiance to its rivals. Since President Donald Trump threatened the North with "fire and fury" in August, Pyongyang has conducted its most powerful nuclear test and launched two missiles of increasing range over U.S. ally Japan. It tested its first-ever intercontinental ballistic missiles in July.

Posted: 14 Sep 2017 04:03 PM PDT

U.S. EPA to reconsider coal ash waste regulations for power plantsThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday said it will reconsider a rule regulating coal ash waste from power plants in a win for utility industry groups that petitioned for changes. The EPA, the lead environmental regulator in the United States, said it will reconsider specific provisions of the coal ash rule that took effect in 2015 that regulates how power plants manage and dispose of coal ash in waste pits. The EPA said it is in the "public's interest to reconsider specific provisions" of the regulation and figure out how to amend it to give states more leeway in how they tailor their permit programs to comply with the rule.

U.S. judge presses Trump administration on Dreamer deadlines

U.S. judge presses Trump administration on Dreamer deadlinesA U.S. judge on Thursday repeatedly pressed the Trump administration to extend an October deadline for some immigrants to reapply for a program that shielded children brought to the United States illegally by their parents from deportation. President Donald Trump recently decided to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, in March 2018. At a hearing in a federal court in Brooklyn on Thursday, U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis said the administration's "arbitrary" deadline is destructive, and extending it would give Congress time for a legislative solution.
