One year after world leaders issued the landmark call for a global move away from fossil fuels, nations are failing to turn that promise into action, say climate diplomats, campaigners and policy experts. Many are promising bold policies that align with agreed warming limits, but are approving new oil and gas fields -- an impossible contradiction, says the UN's expert climate panel.

North Korea boasts of 'the world's strongest' missile, but experts say it's too big to use in war

North Korea recently launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, the Hwasong-19, calling it "the world's strongest." Experts question its wartime practicality due to its enormous size. Analysts suggest North Korea still faces technological challenges in making functional ICBMs. The launch appears partly as a response to international criticisms and to draw attention before the U.S. presidential election.

What are solid-fuel missiles, and why is North Korea developing them?

North Korea launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, potentially linked to its development of solid-fuel rocket engines. Solid-fuel missiles are easier to operate and harder to detect compared to liquid-fuel weapons. This development could enhance North Korea's nuclear counterattack capability, although experts believe the country still needs more time to fully master the technology.
