NEW DELHI—An Indian missile test was seen by security experts as a warning shot to China after military talks between the two countries over a contentious border dispute broke down earlier this month.
India’s Defense Ministry said it successfully launched on Wednesday the Agni-5, the country’s longest-range missile, with the power to hit a target up to 3,100 miles away.
Security experts said the launch of the missile, the only one in India’s arsenal capable of reaching Beijing, was a pointed reminder to China that the South Asian nation has the firepower to fight back if tensions flare up again. The two nuclear-armed neighbors have been in a tense standoff along their 2,000-mile border, with tensions escalating after a bloody Himalayan clash in June 2020 left 20 Indian troops and four Chinese soldiers dead
