New Delhi: India test-fired Agni-5, a nuclear-capable long-range ballistic missile.
According to Indian media, the indigenously developed nuclear-capable "Agni-5" can hit targets up to 5,400 km. This is standard practice and a protocol warning was issued prior to the experiment.
Indian experts say that the real purpose of the experiment was to send a message to China. On an experimental basis, the missile was launched from the Integrated Test Range at Abdul Kalam Island in Odisha.
It should be remembered that two days ago, there was a clash between the Indian and Chinese army personnel on the Line of Actual Control of the Indian state of Arunachal, in which several Indian personnel was injured.
