The military reconnaissance satellite launched by North Korea took photos of the White House, the Pentagon and nuclear aircraft carriers docked at a US naval base. This was reported by Pyongyang. According to Korean Central News Agency KCNA, leader Kim Jong-un saw the photos on Monday and Tuesday when he received a report on operations from the General Control Center of the National Aerospace Technology Administration. The photos, taken from November 25 to 28, show Rome, Anderson Air Force Base in Guam, in the Pacific, the Norfolk Naval Station, the Newport News Naval Shipyard and an airport in Virginia, in the United States. Also immortalized were four US Navy nuclear aircraft carriers and a British aircraft carrier.
The Malligyong-1 satellite was launched last Tuesday, after several unsuccessful attempts, the last of which was just three months ago. The international community condemned this action by North Korea because, among the technologies used to build the device, there are also components intended for creating ballistic missiles. This is the accusation of the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, who also spoke out against the remaining members of the UN Security Council for refusing to express their opposition to Kim Jong-Jong’s measure. .
