Pakistan on Saturday test-fired a nuclear-capable ballistic missile, its second test within eight days, the military said. The surface-to-surface 'Abdali' has a range of 200 km (125 miles), and is one of the earliest missile systems developed by Pakistan.
"The test was aimed at validation of the desired technical parameters, which has been successfully achieved," the military said in a statement. Pakistan tested the 'Shaheen II', or 'Hatf VI', missile with a range of 2,000 km (1,240 miles) on February 23, two days after signing a historic deal with India to cut the risk of atomic weapons accidents.
