In a groundbreaking move, Beijing has successfully launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean for the first time since 1980. This "routine" test, which China claims is not directed at any specific country, marks a significant shift in its military capabilities and strategy. Analysts suggest the missile is likely a Dong Feng-41, capable of reaching up to 15,000 kilometers. The launch has raised concerns among neighboring nations, highlighting China's growing assertiveness on the global stage.
