The launch comes amid increasing tensions on the Korean peninsula, with the US and South Korea running joint military drills in the area and North Korea increasing its missile tests.
North Korea’s second attempt to launch a military satellite failed after an issue occurred during the rocket’s third phase, state media revealed.
The failed launch, which was also confirmed by the South Korean military, took off from the North Phyongan Province around dawn on Thursday local time. The launch of the Malligyong-1 satellite was carried on a new type of carrier rocket, the Chollima-1.
