North Korean TV airs movie-like footage of Kim Jong Un guiding an ICBM test
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un guided the successful test-launch of a new “powerful tool for nuclear attack” called the “Hwasong-17” intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) on March 24, 2022 as part of efforts to “contain” the U.S., state media reported the next day.
The ICBM launch broke Kim’s self-imposed moratorium, South Korean president Moon Jae-in said, “strongly condemning“ the test.
The missile flew for 67 minutes, reached an altitude of 3,882.3 miles (6,248.5 km) and landed 677 miles (1,090 km) from its launch location at the Pyongyang International Airport, North Korea’s Rodong Sinmun claimed.
