The long-range missile reached an altitude of 2000 kilometres before crashing into the Sea of Japan.

This has many world leaders concerned, with Japan, South Korea and the US all condemning the launch.

This test comes as North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un pushes to bolster his country’s defences.

The United Nations already prohibits the country from conducting from ballistic and nuclear weapons tests, imposing strict sanctions.

But Kim Jong Un has ignored these warnings, as the North Korean economy struggles to prosper amid US-led sanctions, the Covid pandemic and mismanagement.

The comments came after the Biden administration halted a recent shipment of bombs amid concerns over Israel’s plans to launch a full-scale assault on Rafah even as cease-fire talks continue with Hamas.
