a moment. but we want to start with some a breaking news. a manhunt is underway in southwest germany after 2 police officers were killed during a traffic stop. the 2 officers had stopped a car near the city of kaiser's lawton. when shots were fired. when back up arrived, the 24 year old female officer and a male colleague, aged $29.00, were found dead. the suspects have fled this scene a correspond belinda crane is following this story of for us, melinda. what more can you tell us? well, not a whole lot so far, the police are still hunting for the shooters and trying to determine the motive and their search has been extended to the neighboring state of sar land. as you mentioned, the incident took place early this morning during a routine traffic stop that turned into a shoot out. the 2 young police officers did radio for help. the reinforcements didn't arrive in time. the younger of the 2, by the way, was still student at the police academy. the perpetrators and the police assumed

that more than one person was involved did flee roads in the area have been closed off. and apparently there some thought that one or more perpetrators could be armed and on foot since the police are warning drivers not to pick up hitchhikers. a short while ago, the police union expressed its deep sorrow and concerned about what it calls the true nightmare of all police officers. tell us how unusual is an incident like this for germany. it's pretty unusual, far more so than in a country like the united states, for example. and that's especially true since gun laws were tightened. following 2 separate school shootings in 20022009 respectively. that left a total of $32.00 people dead. germany has very strict rules on gun licensing and registration. at the moment, there are 7000000 registered guns in this country, which as a population of 83000000. so that's less than one gun for every 10 people, just for comparison in the united states, there are

a $120.00 guns for every 100 people. so more than a gun per person. and that's only legal known weapons. melinda crane, there for us. thank you. has been called north korea's most significant weapons test. in years, the reclusive regime has confirmed it has launched a missile that can reach us basis in the pacific state. media said the weapon were, was a war song 12 that's a ballistic missile of intermediate range. it is capable of hitting the u. s. territory of go on with a nuclear warhead. it's the 1st time the north has tested a missile. that size since 2017 reports said pictures of the earth were taken in space from the missiles knows cone. it's flight was 1st detected, detected by a neighboring south korea and japan, which have condemned the new test. a grandmother no done door beside it or not

because of that. a series of actions by north korea, including the repeated launches of ballistic missiles, threatened the peace and security of japan, the region, and the international community in a little, okay. such intense ballistic missile launches are in violation of relevant security council resolutions. and our country has made a strong protest to north korea in june equal your judgment. for mora, i'm joined by a judge. smith is a senior, corresponded with the reuters news agency in sol. josh, we keep hearing about these tests and south korea and japan and the u. s. have been quick to voice their concern. do we need to be concerned? so all of these missiles have been smaller than the really large intercontinental ballistic missiles that got a lot of attention back in 2017 when retested them, those are the ones that could reach as far as the united states. but one thing the analysts have increasingly pointed out in the officials here and sold and japan,

as you mentioned, have said, is that these missiles that north korea has developed the lately are increasingly capable. and they are the types that could be potentially used in the case of war ever breaks out. and so for people that are down here potentially in a firing line, meet all of these tensions. it is something that is very concerning. and military analysts and officials like say that no crate is making real progress in increasing the capabilities. they're not for sure show. they're not purely a propaganda tool. they do have military potential. but it's off of the propaganda that this was the biggest missile north korea has tested since 2017 and follows month of smaller test. however, contrary to 2070, that's been far less of the bombast than the shrill threats from young young this time ron, can we make anything of this? that is correct. there has been much less talk of byron theory that we saw in 2017

. north korea has mentioned its displeasure with the united states, particularly with sanctions and with ongoing military activities by the united states and south korea here. but it's really all of a state media coverage of most of these tests really focused on the technical aspects of it. and leader came going only showed up that one of the 7 tests, unlike many of the test back in 2017. and this is something that analysts point to as evidence that north korea is in many ways trying to normalize its tests. in fact, get the world to accept that these are normal self defense operations by a country that is just trying to protect that. so let's have a look at the timing of this test. diplomats, i working round the clock at the moment to prevent russian invasion in ukraine relations with china, worst in years. what do you read into the timing of this missile test?

so there are a lot of internal things going on in north korea outside of that, this is comes ahead of some very key holidays that they usually like to show a display of their military power around. and they of course have some economic crises. so this is in part way the government show strength in the face of those problems at the same time. analysts and officials that we've talked to have noted that north korea could be taking advantage of a bit of distraction by a lot of the world is seeking to continue to make these real military advances at a time when united states its allies, other countries around the world only have so much bandwidth to concentrate on calculating perhaps that they can make some progress with less of the attention that they got in the class. just smith, they're in a so for us, thank you josh. the on security council miss you to meet for the 1st time over rush us military,
