North Korea fires what appears to be longest-range missile since 2017
North Korea has fired what appeared to be the most powerful missile it has tested since US President Joe Biden took office.
The Japanese and South Korean militaries said the missile was launched on a lofted trajectory, apparently to avoid the territorial spaces of neighbours, and reached a maximum altitude of 2,000 kilometres (1,242 miles) and travelled 800 kilometres (497 miles) before landing in the sea.
