North Korean leader Kim Jong Un addressed a severe mishap involving a newly constructed warship, attributing the incident to severe operational negligence. At the ship's launch, a cradle detached, damaging the hull, which authorities claim reflects incompetence. The KCNA reported Kim's strong condemnation of the carelessness, labeling it as intolerable. He signaled potential consequences for responsible officials and underscored the urgency to repair the vessel before an upcoming party meeting in June, emphasizing that restoring the ship is vital for the state’s honor and authority.
"Kim warned solemnly that officials responsible for the botched launch would have to be dealt with at the next meeting of the central committee of the ruling Workers' Party of Korea."
"The accident was caused by absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism which could not be tolerated, the KCNA said."
