The Rocket Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army successfully launched an intercontinental ballistic missile carrying a training dummy warhead into the Pacific Ocean-related high seas waters,

China launched a missile into the Pacific Ocean Wednesday, not long after President Biden mentioned a need for security in East Asia during a U.N. address.

The test of an intercontinental ballistic missile with a dummy warhead comes amid concerns over China's nuclear arsenal.

China said on Wednesday it had successfully conducted a rare launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean, a move likely to raise international concerns about the country's nuclear build-up.

China launched an intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean in what appeared to be its first such public test in some four decades, a move likely to rattle the US as it seeks to sway world leaders at a meeting of the United Nations General Assembly.

The Chinese military test-fired on Wednesday the first intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific that it's launched since 1980, officials said.
