Resolves YES if North Korea test launches a Hwasong-17 ICBM. Resolves NO if North Korea conducts a nuclear weapon test. Resolves N/A if neither happens by end of 2025.

Determination will be based on reliable media reporting and/or the following articles (if backed by reliable sources):

If most reporting suspects it was a Hwasong-17, I'll count it (similar to how Wikipedia lists suspected test launches).
