N Korea shows Kim examining a military spy satellite that may be launched soon May 16, 2023 at 07:20PM

Kim during Tuesday’s visit approved an unspecified 'future action plan' in preparations for launching the satellite, North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency said Wednesday. North Korea hasn't disclosed a target date for the launch, which some analysts say may be in the next few weeks. That launch would use long-range missile technology banned by past UN Security Council resolutions.
