[alex pitters]

North Korea has successfully tested a hypersonic missile, state media reported Thursday, in the first such test by the nuclear-armed nation this year.


The missile was test-fired on Wednesday and carried a “hypersonic gliding warhead” that “precisely hit a target 700 km away”, the official Korea Central News Agency (KCNA) said.


This was the second reported North Korean test of a hypersonic gliding missile, a sophisticated weapon that has marked the latest technological advance in its arsenal.
