North Korea launches successful test of new cruise missile, implies it can carry nuclear warhead

North Korea has launched a cruise missile, potentially its first with nuclear capabilities, as reported by KCNA. The missile, described as a strategic weapon, flew 930 miles in 126 minutes, landing in North Korean waters. Experts suggest the term 'strategic' implies nuclear potential. The missile's flight path included complex orbits, making it difficult to detect. The use of cruise missiles in conflict could overwhelm enemy defenses. However, it remains uncertain if North Korea can miniaturize nuclear warheads for these missiles. Kim Jong Un has prioritized developing smaller bombs.

What challenge does North Korea face in developing nuclear warheads for cruise missiles?
