North Korea has announced that it has successfully tested a solid-fuel engine that boosted the power of its ballistic rockets.

The test was supervised by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un who later said that, “the successful test helped boost the power of ballistic rockets capable of mercilessly striking hostile forces.” Sana reported Thursday.

The Korean Central News Agency “KCNA” reported Thursday that the test was supervised by Leader Kim Jong Un who said that “the successful test helped boost the power of ballistic rockets capable of mercilessly striking hostile forces.

On January 7th, DPRK carried out a successful hydrogen bomb test. Leader Jong Un said the country conducted a hydrogen bomb test as a self-defensive step against a U.S. threat of nuclear war and had a sovereign right to do so without being criticized.

“It is the legitimate right of a sovereign state and a fair action that nobody can criticize,” KCNA quoted the Leader as saying.
