North Korea ‘restoring’ rocket launch site



Satellite images of North Korea shows it is restoring a rocket launch site, which it had pledged to dismantle.

The Tongchang-ri rocket launch site has been used for satellite launches and engine testing, according to reports.

The satellite showed the images two days after the Hanoi summit between US President Donald Trump and North Korea leader Kim Jong Un.

Even though the work to dismantle the site began last year, it stopped as the US-North Korea talks stalled, agency reports said.

The US, meanwhile, has warned North Korea of more sanctions if Pyongyang did not take steps to denuclearize. (Agencies)
