Kim Jong-un oversaw the test of two new air defense missiles in North Korea. North Korean officials have stated that these missiles are designed to combat aerial threats like drones and cruise missiles. There was no information released on the specific types of missiles tested, the date, or the location of the test.
The test was carried out before a meeting between US President Donald Trump and South Korean President Lee Jae-myung in Washington, scheduled for Monday. Kim has previously spoken against the combined military exercises of the US and South Korea.
