North Korea, under the supervision of leader Kim Jong Un, conducted successful tests of two missile types: one equipped with a 'super-large conventional warhead' and another likely designed for nuclear capability. These tests, which follow multiple missile launches earlier in the week, aim to bolster military readiness against perceived US-led threats. Kim emphasized the necessity for an enhanced nuclear force and overwhelming conventional weapon capabilities, stating that a strong military is essential to deter adversaries. The launches included the Hwasongpho-11-Da-4.5 ballistic missile, designed to accurately strike targets within a 320-kilometer range, indicating a focus on potential strikes against South Korea. Analysts suggest that North Korea's expanding arsenal is intended as leverage in future negotiations with the US. This development raises concerns about regional security dynamics as North Korea seeks to showcase its military advancements.
