The launches were the first since President Trump briefly entered North Korea last month. Margaret Brennan joins “CBS This Morning” to discuss how this latest launch will affect diplomatic relations in the region.
The White House is downplaying Thursday's missile tests in North Korea, calling them "standard" and "short-ranged."

A leaked U.N. report found that North Korea allegedly stole about $2 billion using cyberattacks to fund its weapons program.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said the country no longer feels bound by its self-imposed suspension on nuclear weapons and long-range ballistic missile tests. Isaac Stone Fish, a CBSN contributor and senior fellow at the Asia Society's Center on U.S.-China Relations, joined CBSN to discuss the announcement.
Tensions are escalating between the U.S. and North Korea after Kim Jong Un announced that the country would be unveiling a new "strategic weapon" in the "near future."
