North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw Pyongyang’s latest ICBM launch with his daughter in tow, state media has said.
North Korea unveiled the little-known daughter of its leader Kim Jong Un at the Friday launch of Pyongyang’s newest intercontinental ballistic missile.
State media KCNA reported on Saturday that Kim attended the launch “together with his beloved daughter and wife”.
Pictures released by the North’s main Rodong Sinmun newspaper showed a young girl in a white puffer jacket and red shoes walking hand-in-hand with Kim ahead of a huge missile atop a launch truck.
The latest pictures have attracted attention on a fourth-generation member of the dynastic family that has ruled North Korea for over seven decades as it is very rare for the state media to mention Kim’s children.
Experts said that it is the first official confirmation that Kim had a daughter.
