India tests nuclear-capable Agni-5 ballistic missile with 5,000-km range

India’s Strategic Forces Command on wednesday has conducted test of Agni-V Inter-Contiental Ballistic Missile. India claims that it can strike targeting upto 5,000 kilometres range.

The successful launch aligns with India’s policy to have a “credible minimum deterrence” that underpins the commitment to ‘No First Use’.

The successful test-firing of the missile, built by the Defence Research Development Organisation’s (DRDO), came in the midst of a lingering border standoff with China in eastern Ladakh.
