(VOVWORLD) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un supervised the firing of new air defense missiles to test their combat capability, the Korea Central News Agency reported on Sunday.
The two missiles tested on Saturday were designed to target aerial threats, including attack drones and cruise missiles. State media reported few details on the projectiles, other than describing them as "improved" versions, saying they were "based on unique and special technology."
Kim also assigned unspecified “important” tasks to defense scientists ahead of a major political conference expected early next year. No further details were revealed.
