“U.S. and South Korean officials are reviewing whether North Korea tested its newest intercontinental ballistic missile last week as it had claimed, with mounting public signs that Pyongyang may have exaggerated its milestone,” the Washington Post reports.
“The launch appeared to be a modified version of the Hwasong-15, an older model that is slightly smaller than the Hwasong-17 and was the last ICBM that North Korea tested in 2017 … Still, the test showed that North Korea is making incremental progress in improving its ICBM capability.”
