US TO PROPOSE SANCTIONS

THE US will propose UN sanctions on multiple North Koreans, a day after Pyongyang carried out what it said was the launch of a hypersonic missile, the US UN ambassador, Linda Thomasgreenfield, announced this week. The five North Koreans sanctioned were “responsible for procuring goods for the DPRK’S (North Korea’s) weapons of mass destruction”. It was reported that the country’s leader, Kim Jong-un, personally oversaw its successful test of a hypersonic missile. . | AFP
