The United Nations Security Council has strongly condemned the latest North Korean missile launches, calling them \u00ab\u00a0a grave violation\u00a0\u00bb of its sanctions resolutions.

The statement urged the UN’s 193 member states \u00ab\u00a0to redouble their efforts to implement\u00a0\u00bb the sanctions.<\/p>\n
