During the weekend, Pyongyang also arrested three officials on the North Chongian Shipyard, where the destroyer was built and where her launch was succeeding.

Officials were the main engineer, his construction head and administrative manager.

Kim earlier said that on Wednesday, the incident was caused by “absolute negligence, irresponsibility and uncomfortable empirical”.

It is unusual that North Korea is publicly revealed by a local accident, although it has done a handful of times in the past after a failed satellite launch.

Some analysts believe that Kimov is a fast and difficult answer intended as a signal that Pyongjang will continue to give their military capabilities.

Although such criticisms “do not survive” for dictatorship, it is unusual that the state media openly reportedly reported to Chun In-Bum, the former commander of the South Korea’s special forces.

“I’m afraid this could be a sign of confidence and resistance emissions,” he says.

“With this new line of ships, North Korea seems to be seriously challenging the sovereignty of the south.”
