North Korea has said the missile it tested on Wednesday held a warhead capable of re-entering the Earth's atmosphere. The claim was not proven and experts have cast doubt on the country's ability to master such technology, BBC reported on Wednesday. North Korean Kim Jong-un called the launch "impeccable" and a "breakthrough". It was the first test from Pyongyang in more than two months, after a flurry earlier this year. It has been condemned by the international community.
