Latest North Korean missile may be capable of reaching New York, analysts say

North Korea shattered a two-month period of relative quiet by test-firing a missile that analysts say may put the US east coast in range, Bloomberg reports. Japan said the intercontinental ballistic missile flew for 53 minutes on a lofted trajectory and may have reached an altitude of more than 4,000 kilometers (2,500 miles) before landing in waters about 250 kilometers from its northwest coast.
