North Korea’s government is claiming its spy satellite photographed the White House and the Pentagon.
According to the state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has seen satellite photos of the Pentagon and the White House, as well as Naval Station Norfolk and Newport News Dockyard in Virginia.
The Associated Press reported North Korea has not released these photographs, and outside experts aren’t sure the country’s new satellite can send high-resolution photographs and perform top military surveillance.
