North Korean intercontinental missile launch condemned by US, Japan
Washington | The United States, Japan and South Korea issued a joint statement on Thursday (Friday AEDT) strongly condemning North Korea’s launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile for the first time in almost a year.
North Korea said it tested an ICBM earlier on Thursday, upgrading what it called the “world’s most powerful strategic weapon”, as Seoul warned Pyongyang could get missile technology from Russia for helping with the war in Ukraine.
