North Korea test-launched an intercontinental ballistic missile in a display of military might Thursday just hours before the leaders of South Korea and Japan were to meet at a Tokyo summit expected to be overshadowed by North Korean nuclear threats. The launch, the North's first ICBM test in a month, also comes as South Korean and U.S. troops continue joint military exercises that Pyongyang considers a rehearsal to invade.
