N Korean test of likely hypersonic missile fails: Seoul military official

North Korea test-fired a suspected hypersonic missile Wednesday, which failed mid-air after traveling 250 km. The launch followed recent trash-laden balloon incidents that disrupted flights at South Korea’s Incheon airport. In response to ongoing tensions, Seoul suspended a military agreement and resumed border propaganda broadcasts. The failed missile test comes amid planned joint military drills between South Korea, the US, and Japan, which North Korea routinely criticizes as invasion rehearsals. AFP
