Kim Supervises Launch of High-Altitude Missile in North Korea

According to a report by KCNA, as conveyed by Reuters, a test conducted to evaluate the nation’s strategic technology in the development of an advanced high-altitude missile successfully obliterated aerial targets from a distance of 200 kilometers (124 miles).

The submarine initiative aligns with North Korea’s ruling party’s strategic objective to enhance its naval forces, constituting one of the five primary defense development policies currently being advanced, according to KCNA.

Kim Jong Un articulated concerns that South Korea’s agreement with Washington to develop a nuclear submarine would escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula and represents a threat to national security, necessitating a responsive course of action.

In a message conveyed to Kim Jong Un via the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), Putin emphasized that the year 2025 holds a “special meaning” for the diplomatic relationship between Moscow and Pyongyang.
