N.Korea conducts longest-range missile test since 2017
South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff reported that a projectile believed to be a single ballistic missile was launched about 7:52 a.m. from North Korea's Jagang Province toward the ocean off its east coast.
He noted that this month's flurry of missile tests was reminiscent of the heightened tensions in 2017, when North Korea conducted multiple nuclear tests and launched its largest missiles, including some that flew over Japan. "The United States condemns these actions and calls on to refrain from further destabilizing acts," the U.S. military's Indo-Pacific Command said in a statement after Sunday's launch.
South Korea's JCS and Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno separately said the missile is estimated to have reached an altitude of 2,000km and flown for 30 minutes to a distance of 800km. IRBMs typically have ranges of 600 to 3,500 miles, while ICBMs have ranges exceeding 3,500 miles.
