Putin’s friend showed strength to Trump, made such a hypersonic blast in welcome, neighboring countries were horrified

Giving this information, the Korean Central News Agency, the official news agency of North Korea, said that during these tests, two hypersonic missiles accurately hit a land target located in the northern region of the country. In the news, this system was described as strategic, which indicates that it can be equipped with nuclear weapons. However, KCNA did not reveal the name of the new missile system.

North Korea showed strength

These tests took place when North Korean leader Kim Jong Un demonstrated his army’s latest weapons during a huge military parade held in Pyongyang just a few days ago. These included a short-range ballistic missile equipped with a hypersonic glide vehicle. South Korea’s army said on Wednesday that it had detected several missiles fired from the southern region of Pyongyang, which fell on the ground after flying about 350 kilometers north-east. The tests come at a time when world leaders, including US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, are preparing to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in neighboring South Korea.

Kim Jong Un was also present at the time of the blasts

According to KCNA, Pak Jong Chon, one of Kim’s top military officers, was also present during the tests. Praising the performance of the new state-of-the-art weapon system, he said that North Korea will further advance its anti-war and defense capabilities. North Korea has tested several hypersonic weapon systems in recent years. These weapons are said to be capable of flying at five times the speed of sound and are designed to confuse missile defense systems with their path. However, experts have raised questions about whether North Korean missiles are actually flying at the speed claimed during the tests.
