North Korea has been relatively quiet over the last couple months.

They hadn't tested a missile since September.

But on Wednesday morning, they test fired a ballistic missile that they claim is a new

type that can strike anywhere on the US mainland.

Its called a Hwasong-15, a more advanced version of the intercontinental ballistic missile

that it launched back in july.

The missile was reported to have flown for 50 minutes at a high trajectory.

It reached 2796 miles, or 4500 kilometers above the earth, which if you didn't know

is 10 times higher than the interneational space station.

It came down and 621 miles from the launch site, off the west coast of japan.

The US defence secretary, james mattis, said that this missile went higher than any previous

shot they've taken.

According to north Korean propaganda, This missile has the capability of carrying a super

large heavy warhead.

While North Korea announced this on the state news, it simultaneously declared itself a

complete nuclear state.

Kim jong un oversaw the missile test, which launched in Pyongsong.

At this time, it hasn't been completely proven that they can add a miniature nuclear

warhead with a long range missile.

Yes, the missile could have the capability to hit the mainland on its own, but if you

add a nuclear warhead to that missile, its going to make it heavier, which will change

the trajectory.

This was north korea's 20th missile test of the year.

All of these tests are prohibited under UN sanctions placed on north korea.

South korea, in response, tested its own missile.

South Koreas president, Moon Jae in said that he is worried that the US could launch a pre

emptive strike on north korea, which could escalate into a full-fledged war.

Japans Prime Minister Shinzo abe also called the missile launch, intolerable, and called

for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council.

The US secretary of state said that the US is still committed to finding a peaceful path.

President trump was quoted saying 'we will take care of it, it is a situation that we

will handle.

That is all for now, and thanks for watching IO.
