North Korea test a newly developed hypersonic missile

North Korea claimed Wednesday that it successfully tested a new hypersonic missile. The advanced weapon system could be harder to defend and continues to expand the country’s military power.

The development of the weapon system increases North Korea’s defence capabilities.

Hwasong series missiles use liquid propellant engines.

This is the first test of a liquid propellant missile in North Korea since November 2017.
