The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy on Monday successfully conducted the test launch of a strategic missile by a submarine.

The PLA Navy said that one strategic nuclear submarine of the navy successfully launched a strategic missile carrying a dummy warhead toward relevant high seas of the Pacific Ocean at 12:01 p.m., which landed precisely within the designated waters.

The missile test was part of China's annual routine military training program, the military said in a statement. Relevant countries were notified in advance. The test complied with international law and international practice and was not directed at any specific country or target.
