China's recent launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile into the Pacific Ocean has raised concerns about the rapid modernization of its nuclear forces amid global tensions.
The test-launched ICBM, part of a routine training plan by the People's Liberation Army, has drawn international attention, especially due to questions surrounding China's nuclear arsenal expansion.
Reports indicated that the recent missile test was aimed not at any specific country but served the broader purpose of enhancing troop training and weapon performance evaluation.
With projections estimating over 1,000 operational nuclear warheads by 2030, the United States fears that China's pace of nuclear arsenal development may outstrip earlier predictions.
