The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff confirmed that North Korea launched a ballistic missile on Friday towards the East Sea (Sea of Japan).
The agency did not provide further details, but said it was analyzing the North Korean missile’s flight range and other capabilities, according to what was reported by the South Korean Yonhap News Agency.
On the third of last month, North Korea announced that it had successfully test-launched a new medium-range ballistic missile equipped with a hypersonic warhead, adding that all missiles developed by the country were now powered by solid fuel and nuclear capacity.
