N. Korea likely not preparing for launch at Sohae facility: ROK defense minister Foreign minister Kang, however, expresses "concerns" over potential future nuclear, missile tests
Recent activity at North Korea's Sohae Satellite Launch Facility should not be considered as constituting preparations for a missile launch, South Korea's defense minister said on Monday.
Speaking at a hearing of the National Assembly's defense committee, Minister of National Defense Jeong Kyeong-doo said it would be a “prejudgement” to label imagery showing ongoing reconstruction at the Sohae Satellite Launch Facility as “missile-related.”
