North Korea claims warship launch successful on second try
North Korea successfully relaunches 5,000-ton warship after a failed initial attempt; leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the event at Rajin Port. The ship, named Kang Kon, is part of North Korea's nuclear-armed navy modernization efforts and marks a significant addition to their fleet. Despite the quick repairs and relaunch, experts question if the warship is fully restored.
