The North Korean Central News Agency said Thursday that a “serious” accident occurred during the launching ceremony of a new warship.
The agency stated that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who witnessed the failure of the launch of 5,000 tons of destroyers, criticized the incident and described it as “a criminal act caused by neglect that could not be forgiven.”
Kim ordered the re -preparation of the ship before a party meeting to be held next June.
Last April, North Korea revealed a new naval destroyer with a weight of 5,000 tons, which is likely to be equipped with tactical nuclear missiles, enhancing the country’s nuclear aspirations by air by air and sea.
