Kim Jong Un steps out with daughter for missile launch

Declaring he would meet perceived nuclear threats from the United States with nukes of his own, Kim supervised the launch of the black-and-white missile, the official Korean Central News Agency said was the Hwasong-17 — dubbed the “monster missile” by analysts.

The intercontinental ballistic missile landed in Japan’s Exclusive Economic Zone on Friday.

Meanwhile, the European Union on Saturday decried the “dangerous” test of North Korea’s newest intercontinental ballistic missile and said Pyongyang’s weapons programme threatens the world.
