North Korea Launches Spy Satellite into Orbit, Prompting Condemnation from the International Community

Adrienne Watson, National Security Council spokesperson, condemned North Korea's attempt to launch a spy satellite into orbit, which was detected by South Korea's military and successfully launched late Tuesday night. Japan briefly issued an advisory in Okinawa and Prime Minister Fumio Kishida condemned the launch, while the missile was believed to have passed into the Pacific Ocean. Watson's statement called the launch a "brazen violation of multiple international laws and norms."
