North Korea confirmed Sunday it did conduct another intercontinental ballistic missile test on Feb. 18 in efforts to further bolster its "fatal" nuclear attack against its rivals.
The launch was designed to verify the weapon's reliability and the combat readiness of the country's nuclear force, KCNA reported. It also signals that Kim Jong Un is using his rivals' drills as an opportunity to expand the North's nuclear capability, aiming to enhance its leverage in future dealings with the U.S.
An expert added the North may seek to hold regular operational exercises involving its ICBMS, The AP said.
