The launch was personally observed by the leader of the DPRK, Kim Jong-un, who congratulated the people of the republic on such a significant event. Now Pyongyang plans to launch several more reconnaissance satellites into orbit.

Recall that the first two attempts by the DPRK to place a military spacecraft in orbit ended in failure, in May there were problems with the operation of the second stage of the rocket due to fuel, in August problems with the third stage were reported. This time everything worked normally.
