U.S. response to N. Korea ICBM test

Response to N. Korea's ICBM test
The Trump administration is searching for the right response to North Korea's first-ever ICBM test. The most powerful missile the North has tested marks a dramatic change in the threat from Kim Jong Un's regime. Ben Tracy reports.
US contradicts N. Korea ICBM claim
North Korean state media says its ICBM missile test Tuesday morning reached an altitude of about 1,500 miles. Kim Jong Un celebrated what would be the country's first ICBM test, but the U.S. military is maintaining that it is an intermediate-range missile. President Trump reacted on Twitter, writing, "Does this guy have anything better to do with his life?" David Martin reports.
N. Korea claims first ICBM test
North Korea claims it has successfully tested its first-ever intercontinental ballistic missile capable of hitting the U.S. It was fired from its western coast Tuesday morning and flew for about 600 miles before landing in the Sea of Japan. If the country's claims are true, the threat from North Korea just got much more serious. Ben Tracy reports.

Special Report: N. Korea ICBM test
North Korea is trumpeting what it calls the country's first intercontinental ballistic missile test. Some scientists say it had the potential to reach Alaska. It appears to be the most successful test that North Korea has ever carried out. In Beijing, the Chinese government is urging restraint, but if North Korea's claim is true then this is a game changer. Ben Tracy reports.
Trump on North Korea
Following a joint statement by President Trump and South Korea's President Moon Jae-in at the White House, CBS News chief White House correspondent Major Garrett and Isaac Stone Fish, a senior fellow at the Asia Society's Center on U.S.-China Relations, join CBSN to discuss the latest on U.S. and South Korean relations.
