North Korea's Kim Orders Stronger Strike Power

CNBC

The leader of North Korea ordered its military to boost its strike capability as he directed another missile firing, state media said on Friday, as tensions grew over tests that appeared to show preparations for a new advanced missile system, Reuters reporst. 

News of the call for “full combat posture” by Kim Jong Un follows a U.S. announcement that it had seized a large North Korean cargo ship for carrying an illegal shipment of coal.

The increased tensions come amid a gridlock in dialogue after the second summit between Kim and U.S. President Donald Trump collapsed over U.S. demands for Pyongyang’s nuclear disarmament and Kim’s demands for relief from sanctions.
