China's Defense Ministry stated that the recent ICBM test, which fell into the Pacific Ocean, was a "routine arrangement in our annual training plan" not aimed at any target.
Despite China's assertion of prior notification, Japan's top government spokesperson emphasized that there was "no notice from the Chinese side in advance" about the ICBM launch.
The launch was described in reports as an effective test of weapons and troop training, fulfilling the expected goals outlined in China's military plans.
The state media reported that China "informed the countries concerned in advance," but failed to specify the missile's trajectory or exact landing area in the Pacific.
