North Korean state media confirmed on Wednesday that the rogue nation`s latest rocket launch was a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile capable of reaching the U.
The new ICBM, called the Hwasong-15, was ordered by leader Kim Jong Un and is the country`s the most powerful missile so far, according to a televised broadcast.
It added that the nation`s missile program will not threaten any country as long as they do not infringe on North Korea`s sovereignty.
The statement also confirmed details about the Hwasong-15 launch, which it described as successful: The device was fired at a lofted trajectory, hit an altitude of 4,475 kilometers and flew 950 km during a 53-minute flight.
These statistics were already known by the international community.
In July, Pyongyang tested an ICBM known as the Hwasong-14 that was believed to be capable of hitting a bit more than half of the continental U.
