UNSC expands North Korea sanctions

New resolution designates 14 DPRK citizens and 4 entities, including the Strategic Rocket Force

The UN Security Council (UNSC) unanimously adopted a new North Korea resolution on Friday, with both China and Russia voting in favor of the restrictions put forward by Washington.

Unlike previous resolutions targeting the North's weapons programs, the new UN measures were not preceded by a large-scale provocation, satellite launch, or nuclear test.
