North Korean leader Kim Jong-un supervises test-firing of a 'newly developed' weapon - state media
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un oversaw the test of a"super-large multiple rocket launcher", state news agency KCNA reports.
South Korea's military had said the North launched what appeared to be two short-range ballistic missiles on Saturday, but the North's state media said a "super-large multiple rocket launcher" had been tested. "The test-fire proved that all the tactical and technological specifications of the system correctly reached the preset indexes," the report said.
Saturday's test prompted South Korea's presidential Blue House to convene a National Security Council meeting."NSC members agreed to continue diplomatic efforts with the international community to bring the North back to the negotiation table with the US to achieve the goal of complete denuclearisation in the Korean peninsula," the government said in a statement.
