North Korean officials said on Monday they have successfully launched a missile with warhead-guidance.

North Korea’s unstable leader Kim Jong-un approved the deployment of a new intermediate-range ballistic ‘missile for combat use.’

South Korea’s largest news agency Yonhap reported: North Korea’s leader observed the launch of the new ground-to-ground Pukguksong-2 missile, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

North Korea fired the missile from the vicinity of Pukchang in the country’s western province on Sunday, a week after it test-fired another new intermediate-range ballistic missile, called the Hwasong-12.

The North’s leader approved the deployment of the Pukguksong-2 for action, calling it a “successful strategic weapon,” the KCNA said.
