North Korean state media confirmed on Wednesday that the rogue nation’s latest rocket launch was a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile called the Hwasong-15 that is capable of reaching the U.S.

The ICBM launch, ordered by leader Kim Jong Un, was a success and is the most powerful missile so far, state media said. It added that the nation’s missile program will not threaten any country as long as they do not infringe on North Korea’s sovereignty.
