Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned Sunday\u2019s launch, saying it broke the North\u2019s announced moratorium on such launches and clearly violated Security Council resolutions, U.N. deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.N. chief urged North Korea \u201cto desist from taking any further counter-productive actions,\u201d expressing \u201cgreat concern\u201d that Pyongyang again \u201cdisregarded any consideration for international flight or maritime safety,\u201d Haq said Tuesday.

That\u2019s when the country launched Hwasong-12 and longer-range missiles in a torrid run of weapons firings to acquire an ability to launch nuclear strikes on U.S. military bases in Northeast Asia and the Pacific and even the American homeland.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/flashpoints\/2022\/01\/12\/north-korea-claims-successful-test-of-hypersonic-missile\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22011793737536.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">North Korea claims successful test of hypersonic missile<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Tuesday&#039;s launch was North Korea\u2019s second test of its purported hypersonic missile in a week.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent months, North Korea has launched <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/2022\/01\/11\/north-korea-claims-successful-test-of-hypersonic-missile\/\" target=\"_blank\">a variety of weapons systems<\/a> and threatened to lift the four-year moratorium on more serious weapons tests such as nuclear explosions and ICBM launches.
