North Korea tests new long-range missile - BBC News

North Korea has tested a new long-range cruise missile capable of hitting much of Japan, state media said on Monday.

It suggests the country is still capable of developing weapons despite food shortages and an economic crisis.

The weekend tests saw missiles travelling up to 1,500km (930 miles), the official KCNA news agency said.

Japan said it had "significant concerns" and the US military said the tests posed threats to the international community.
