UN Security Council to discuss North Korea's missile launch on Monday

The UN Security Council is set to meet on Monday to discuss North Korea's recent missile test. This follows North Korea's claim of launching an intercontinental ballistic missile on Thursday. The meeting was requested by the United States, France, Japan, Malta, South Korea, Slovenia, and Britain. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the missile launch as a violation of Security Council resolutions. North Korea has faced UN sanctions since 2006, aimed at stopping its nuclear and missile programs. The situation on the Korean Peninsula remains a concern for the international community.
