North Korean leader marks New Year with fresh ballistic
missile launch just hours into 2023
Kim Jong-un has vowed to ramp up the production of nuclear warheads and build a more powerful intercontinental
ballistic missile (ICBM), while singling out
South Korea as his country’s “undoubted enemy”, North Korean state media reported on Sunday.
In a sign of deepening animosity towards the US, South Korea and
Japan, Kim called for an “exponential increase” in the regime’s nuclear
Arsenal during an address at a plenary meeting of the ruling Workers’ party that ended on Saturday.
