North Korea launched an "unidentified projectile," marking its seventh weapons test this month and one of its most intense spates of launches on record.
This surge in testing, including hypersonic missiles, signals Pyongyang's renewed commitment to military modernization, despite stalled talks with the US and economic pressures.
The regime attributes its actions to US "hostile" policy, while key allies China and Russia have recently blocked UN Security Council efforts to impose new sanctions.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
