Images on Russia and North Korean state media showed Kim Jong Un traveling to Russia by armored train — a method of travel that has been used by the reclusive Kim dynasty for decades.
U.S. and South Korean officials believe Kim will offer Vladimir Putin weapons and ammo for his war in Ukraine in exchange for food, energy and weapons technology.
One expert says the sub, based on Soviet-era technology, "will have inherent limitations," but still serve a key purpose for the Kim regime.
A senior South Korean official tells CBS News there's concern the isolated Kim regime could get nuclear submarine or satellite technology for helping Putin.
North Korea's disclosure of detailed war plans is seen an escalation of its protest against ongoing South Korea-U.S. military exercises
According to North Korean state media, King told investigators he decided to enter the country because he "harbored ill feeling against inhuman maltreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army."
Pyongyang also depicted Julie Turner as a "wicked woman."
North Korean media focused on the Russian envoy, who was quoted as saying the two sides met in a "cordial atmosphere overflowing with militant friendship."
The American soldier ran into the North last week across the Koreas' heavily armed border. Pyongyang hasn't said anything publicly about Travis King.
While King's decision to make a dash into North Korea may have some propaganda value for Kim Jong Un, the soldier also poses a problem for a regime.
Private 2nd Class Travis King has only been in the Army since 2021, and he was supposed to be sent back to the U.S. after getting in trouble in South Korea.
The U.S. service member crossed the border so quickly that South Korean and American soldiers didn't have time to stop him, according to local media.
South Korea's military detected the long-range missile launch from the North's capital region around 10 a.m., the South's Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement.
Kim Yo Jong accused the U.S. of sending spy planes over the North's exclusive economic zone.
South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said Kim Jong Un's military had fire 2 short-range missiles into the East Sea, also known as the Sea of Japan.
North Korea said its attempt to put the country's first spy satellite into orbit failed on Wednesday. Here's why it matters.
North Korean media showed leader Kim Jong Un and his daughter, Ju Ae, examining a finished military spy satellite that may be launched in coming weeks.
Leader Kim Jong Un pledged to further expand his nuclear arsenal to "constantly strike extreme uneasiness and horror" in his rivals.
A South Korean defense official said the missile might have been propelled by solid fuel, which would make it more mobile and harder to detect, as opposed to Pyongyang's usual use of liquid fuel.
The launches were the North's seventh missile event this month as it steps up its military demonstrations in a tit-for-tat response to U.S.-South Korea military exercises.
Military analysts are dubious of the latest wild claims from Kim Jong Un's regime, which is furious over the latest U.S.-South Korean joint military exercises.
The tests came three days after Pyongyang carried out what it called a simulated nuclear attack on South Korea.
The launch came less than an hour before the United States flew long-range B-1B bombers for joint training with South Korean warplanes.
The launch came just before South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was to meet with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in Tokyo.
Kim Jong Un's regime calls the major U.S.-South Korean exercise "frantic war preparation," and is likely to respond with more provocative tests.
