Detailed explanation-1: -North Korea claimed the first Hwasong-17 was successfully launched on 24 March 2022. Western analysts instead believe the 24 March launch was an earlier missile design, and a later test that took place on 18 November 2022 was in fact the first successful test launch.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sunday’s launch is the North’s first public weapons test since the country last month launched its developmental, longest-range liquid-fueled Hwasong-17 ICBM capable of reaching the entire U.S. homeland.
Detailed explanation-3: -On Sunday, North Korea fired two ballistic missiles that the South Korean military analyzed to be mid-range ballistic missiles (MRBM).
Detailed explanation-4: -In recent months, North Korea has test-fired a barrage of nuclear-capable ballistic missiles, including last month’s launch of its developmental, longest-range liquid-fuelled Hwasong-17 ICBM, which is designed to carry multiple warheads and has been dubbed the “monster missile”.
