THREATS FROM NORTH KOREA: Emergency UNSC convenes in response to missile launch



US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley called on countries across the world to cut off ties with North Korea on Wednesday as the UN Security Council met to discuss in response to the recent North Korea missile launch.

She called on "all nations to close off all ties with North Korea," as the UNSC opened an emergency meeting on North Korea's launch of a new missile on Wednesday local time, which it said could reach anywhere in the US.

Meanwhile, this morning, North Korea released photos of its newly developed Hwasong-15 ICBM, the long-range ballistic missile it launched early yesterday morning.

In the meantime, US President Donald Trump said more "major sanctions" will be imposed on North Korea in response to its latest ICBM launch.
