Pakistan has Successfully Tested the surface-to-surface medium range Shaheen III ballistic missile with a scope of 2,750km (1,710 miles), according to Pakistan military sources.
The test, conducted on Wednesday, "was focused on re-approving different plan and specialized boundaries of the weapon framework", said an articulation from the military's press wing.
The assertion said the rocket's place of effect was in the Arabian Sea, and that the test was seen by the administrator of Pakistan's Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee, Lieutenant-General Nadeem Zaki Manj, and other high ranking representatives.
Pakistan's military didn't state whether the tried variant of the Shaheen III was equipped for conveying atomic weapons, despite the fact that it has recently been portrayed as having that capacity.
Pakistan is one of eight countries worldwide with expressed atomic weapons capacity.
Its eastern neighbor and adversary India, with whom it has battled three full-scale battles since the two nations acquired freedom from Britain in 1947, additionally has atomic weapons.
The Shaheen III is Pakistan's longest-range rocket system, created with the goal of being equipped for arriving at Indian island regions to deny Indian powers the capacity to set up a "second strike ability", as per remarks made by resigned Lieutenant-General Khalid Kidwai, the previous head of Pakistan's atomic plans division in 2015.
"Director Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee attested that Pakistan wants tranquil concurrence in the area and its essential ability is to deflect any hostility against the power of Pakistan," said the military articulation after Wednesday's test.
Both South Asian nations regularly lead rocket tests, of which they tell the other ahead of time according to a 2005 respective rocket test agreement.
President Arif Alvi and Prime Minister Imran Khan complimented the military and the researchers after the fruitful test.
