SEOUL: North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un visited a navy unit and oversaw a strategic cruise missile test, state media reported on Monday (Aug 21), ahead of the start of joint military drills between South Korea and the United States. Kim inspected one of his fleets in the East Sea, also known as
, with email attacks on South Korean contractors working at the allies' combined exercise war simulation centre, police have said.
At a press conference on Friday, the leaders said they saw a"new chapter" of close three-way security cooperation after the summit, which would have been unthinkable until recently due to the legacy of Japan's harsh 1910 to 1945 occupation of the Korean peninsula.
