North Korea unveils new submarine-launched missile

Military holds parade to celebrate 8th congress of ruling party in Pyongyang

ANKARA (AA) – A new type of submarine-launched ballistic missile was part of weapons displayed at a military parade in North Korea on Thursday night, state media reported.

The parade, held in the capital Pyongyang’s Kim Il-sung Square to celebrate the eighth congress of the ruling Workers’ Party, was attended by Kim and other senior officials, according to the Korean Central News Agency.

The eight-day meeting that wrapped up on Tuesday was held for the first time since 2016 to prepare the country’s strategy for the next five years.

The congress also elected Kim as the general secretary of the ruling party.

Armored vehicles led the parade, followed by ultra-modern tactical missiles and anti-aircraft artillerymen, “displaying the might of the revolutionary armed forces that have grown to be invincible elite forces,” read the report.

The military also showed off an array of North Korea’s most powerful weapon, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, that entered the square one after another.

Fighter jets roared across the night sky, drawing a figure-8 with fireworks in reference to the recently concluded congress.
