PeterHermesFurian/iStock/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — North Korea has held yet another missile test on Wednesday, a U.S. official says.
According to the official, North Korea conducted a static rocket engine test at its Sohae launch facility. It marked the first such test since March.
The test would have involved the upper stage of a multi-stage rocket for use either as a space launch or as an intercontinental ballistic missile.
Separately, at the Punggye-Ri underground nuclear test site, activity earlier this week has been followed by little change. The U.S. official said that it is unclear whether the earlier activity indicates an inspection of the facility, or a coming nuclear test.
