Pakistan tests new ballistic missile

  • 12 years ago
Pakistan has successfully test-fired a new intermediate range ballistic missile, the country's military says.

It says the latest version of its Shaheen 1 rocket can carry nuclear and conventional warheads further than before.

The test comes just days after India conducted its own test of an intercontinental ballistic missile.

Al Jazeera's Imtiaz Tyab reports from Islamabad.
