North Korea has reportedly test-fired a new type of tactical guided weapon.
KCNA did not publish images from the test site or disclose details about the type of weapon tested. South Korean news agency Yonhap also reported on the testing, calling the development an "event of very weighty significance" in North Korea's efforts to beef up its military power.
The Pentagon is not yet confirming what test may have taken place, but an official told ABC News that it had ruled out a ballistic missile test. North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un listens to President Donald Trump during a meeting at the Sofitel Legend Metropole hotel in Hanoi, Feb. 27, 2019. "He said the testing will not start," Trump said at a press conference after the summit. "He said he is not going to do testing of rockets or missiles or anything having to do with nuclear."
