North Korea says it conducted another crucial test



SEOUL: North Korea said it had conducted another test at a satellite launch site on Friday to bolster its strategic nuclear deterrence, North Korean state media outlet KCNA reported on Saturday.

KCNA on Sunday said that North Korea had carried out a “very important” test on Dec. 7 at the Sohae satellite launch site, a rocket-testing ground that U.S. officials once said North Korea had promised to close.

That KCNA report called the event on Dec. 7 a “successful test of great significance” but did not specify what was tested.
