PYONGYANG -- The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Tuesday confirmed it successfully test fired another ballistic missile on Monday, the third in one month, according to official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA). The report said the missile was a medium-range rocket launched from a mobile pad vehicle "through a precision control guidance system." DPRK supreme leader Kim Jong-un guided the test fire, said the report. The test-fire was aimed at "verifying the technological indices of the new-type precision guided ballistic rocket capable of making ultra-precision strike on the enemies' objects at any area," according to the report. A new caterpillar pad vehicle carrying the missile was also tested this time in the launch after it joined a military parade last month for the first time. "The ballistic rocket flew toward the east sky where the day broke and correctly hit a planned target point with deviation of seven meters after flying over the middle shooting range," said the KCNA. The Republic of Korea and US media reports said the missile was a "Scud" missile, capable of hitting targets 500 km away and it fell into the Sea of Japan after flying six minutes. DPRK successfully test fired a long, medium-range ballistic missile capable of hitting targets 4,500 km away for the first time two weeks ago. Another medium-range ballistic missile was also test fired with success last week. printed wristbandssilicone bracelet makerrubber arm bands

Looking forward, he said China will work to maintain steady and sound economic development, strive for greater social progress and deliver an ever better life to the people. "We will ensure that people's essential needs are well met, and that our people will have fewer worries and complaints and lead a more fulfilling and happier life," Li said. Li also reiterated the "one country, two systems" policy in Hong Kong and Macao affairs. Regarding ties across the Taiwan Strait, Li said the Chinese mainland will continue to uphold the one-China principle and the 1992 Consensus as the political foundation, and firmly oppose "Taiwan independence." "[We will] work with our compatriots on Taiwan and all those who support the peaceful development of cross-Straits relations to move toward the complete reunification of the motherland," said Li.
