Civil aviation agency to contact N.Korea over recent missile launch

UN Body to remind North Korea of responsibilities under aviation convention

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) will contact North Korea over a lack of forewarning provided to surrounding states prior to its recent submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) test off its east coast early on Wednesday.

Both the ICAO and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) confirmed to NK News that they did not receive prior notice to warn adjacent states and ensure the safety of local aircraft and maritime vessels.
