North Korea’s Kim Jong Un inspected a military satellite facility on Tuesday, state media KCNA reported.

The report also said Kim has approved the next steps of the action plan by the non-permanent satellite-launching preparatory committee.

Earlier this year, KCNA reported Pyongyang has completed building its first military spy satellite and final preparations to launch the satellite were underway.
