North Korean leader Kim Jong Un took his daughter to another missile test on Sunday aimed at “simulating a nuclear attack on a major target of the enemy,” according to state media.
The Rodong Sinmun reported Monday that the test should serve as a “warning” to the U.S. and South Korea and accused Washington of “frantically escalating” tensions by bringing nuclear-capable weapons systems to the Korean Peninsula for ongoing joint exercises.
