North Korea successfully tested a newly-developed ballistic missile, seeking to verify the new missile’s capability to carry a nuclear warhead, the North Korean government said Monday.
“The test-fire aimed at verifying the tactical and technological specifications of the newly developed ballistic rocket capable of carrying a large-size heavy nuclear warhead,” said the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea’s state-run media service.
The test, the country’s seventh this year, was conducted on Sunday and drew significant ire from White House officials, who called the North Korean regime a “flagrant menace” in a statement.
