N Korea seeks to shore up nuclear force,oversees missile test

 North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered accelerated production to strengthen the country’s nuclear force more rapidly, on the same day he oversaw a test of tactical ballistic missiles with a new guidance system.

While visiting an arms factory on Friday, Kim made the production order “to cope with …the enemies’ reckless military confrontation” and bolster nuclear war deterrence, Bussines Standard reported.

This way, the enemy would be afraid of North Korea’s nuclear combat posture, Kim added.

North Korea fired a number of short-range ballistic missiles toward the sea off its east coast on Friday, South Korea’s military said.

Kim expressed satisfaction with the successful missile test featuring an autonomous navigation system, KCNA said.

Friday’s launches came a day after the US and South Korea conducted joint drills with stealth fighter jets simulating air combat.
