North Korea claims to possess spy images of White House and Pentagon via new satellite
Peek-a-boo. Kim Jong Un sees you!
That’s the message North Korea sent the world on Tuesday, days after it launched its first spy satellite to monitor U.S. and South Korean military activities, according to Reuters.
North Korean state media said Kim looked at images of the White House, Pentagon, and Andersen Air Force Base in Guam, as well as a U.S. shipyard and airbase in Norfolk and Newport in Virginia.
According to the state-run KCNA news agency, the images, which were taken late Monday night, included four U.S. nuclear aircraft carriers and a British aircraft carrier, according to The Guardian.
Reuters reported that these photos were the latest in a series of pictures from “major target regions,” according to KCNA.
Some mocked the release.

Is North Korea considered a threat to U.S. security, according to an ongoing poll
North Korea has recently sent a message to the world by launching its first spy satellite. According to Reuters, the purpose of this satellite is to monitor U.S. and South Korean military activities. State media in North Korea reported that its leader, Kim Jong Un, had looked at images of various strategic locations in the United States, including the White House, the Pentagon, and the Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. The satellite also captured images of a U.S. shipyard and airbase in Norfolk and Newport in Virginia.
The images, taken late Monday night, allegedly included four U.S. nuclear aircraft carriers and a British aircraft carrier, according to The Guardian. This release of photos is said to be the latest in a series of pictures from major target regions, as reported by the state-run KCNA news agency.
However, not everyone has taken this news seriously. Some people have mocked the release of these images on social media. One Twitter user jokingly mentioned that North Korea took a picture of the White House and Rome because Google Maps isn’t available there. Another Twitter user compared North Korea’s excitement about the pictures to a child’s excitement about receiving a long-awaited toy on Christmas.
Chad O’Carroll, founder of the North Korea-focused website NK News, also made a comment on Twitter about North Korea’s actions. He compared North Korea’s behavior to that of a child who couldn’t contain their excitement about a new toy.
The question arises: Is North Korea a threat to U.S. security? This question is being asked in a poll, with options for “Yes” or “No”. The poll is accompanied by a Disclaimer stating that completing the poll entitles the participant to receive news updates from The Western Journal via email.

In conclusion, North Korea’s launch of its spy satellite and the subsequent release of images of strategic locations in the United States have attracted attention and a range of reactions. While some have mocked the release, others are concerned about the potential threat to U.S. security. The situation continues to unfold, and it remains to be seen how it will develop in the coming days and weeks.
