North Korea says missile flew 1,000 km in drill
Original: North Korea claimed Sunday that a military drill involving an "intermediate-range strategic missile" saw the weapon fly
North Korea announced on Sunday that an intermediate-range strategic missile launched during a military drill flew 1,000 kilometers, roughly 300 kilometers farther than the distance estimated by Japan and South Korea. The discrepancy between Pyongyang's claim and its neighbors' assessments is drawing attention as analysts weigh the missile's range and the signal the test sends.
Why now: The claimed range exceeds estimates by Tokyo and Seoul, raising fresh concerns about North Korea's missile capabilities.
