China has test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the Pacific Ocean.
It is rare for these tests to be publicly acknowledged and they usually take place in isolated in-land areas rather than at sea.
The military says the move was routine and complies with international law.
It also said the test wasn't directed at any country or target.
Al Jazeera’s Tony Cheng has more from Beijing and Defence Editor Alex Gatopoulos explains more about this.
