Nuclear Tipped

China warned that tensions on the Korean peninsula have reached "tipping point" after North Korea on Tuesday fired a ballistic missile over Japan, but said the United States and South Korea are partly to blame.

North Korea today lashed out at a live-fire drill the US and South Korea staged in a show of force against Pyongyang, accusing Washington of pushing the peninsula to the "tipping point" of nuclear war.

India on Saturday successfully tested a Star Wars-type interceptor missile that can hit an incoming ballistic missile, achieving a significant milestone in the direction of developing a two-layered Ballistic Missile Defence system. The interceptor was launched from Abdul Kalam Island (Wheeler Island) off Odisha coast at 8 am that morning.

North Korea continues to pursue nuclear and ballistic missile technologies but the United States does not believe it is in a position to "tip" one of them with a nuclear warhead, State Department spokesman John Kirby said on Tuesday.

The pope, the German chancellor and a Congolese doctor were all tipped as top contenders for Friday's Nobel Peace Prize, but speculation was mounting that the honour could go to two octogenarian survivors of the atomic bombings of Japan 70 years ago.

India has successfully test-launched its new ballistic missile, Agni-5, which can carry a nuclear warhead not just to Beijing and Shanghai but even the Northern-most tip of China - Habin City.

Nuclear fuel loading can finally begin at the Kudankulam nuclear power plant in Tamil Nadu. The nuclear watch dog and regulator in India, Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, has given its permission for fuel loading to begin into the controversial atomic reactor, which is located close to the southern tip of India at Kanyakumari.

India's first Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM), Agni-V, was test-fired today at 8:05 am from Wheeler Island off the Odisha coast. The test launch was originally scheduled for Wednesday, but weather played spoilsport. Here are the top 10 facts on the missile that has been designed and developed by Defence Research and Development Organisat...
