The launch of "yet another" intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) poses a "grave threat" to regional stability, a senior UN political affairs official warned on Monday, as the Security Council discussed the rising tensions in the region and beyond.
The missile, launched on 31 October at approximately 7:11am local time, reportedly flew for 1 hour and 26 minutes, covered approximately 1,000 kilometres, reaching an altitude of over 7,000 kilometres before landing in the sea.
