N. Korea's Kim oversees transfer of missile launchers to border

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the delivery of 250 ballistic missile launchers to frontline units along the southern border, calling the weapons a "powerful treasured sword" to defend sovereignty on Sunday.

The "ceremony for transferring 250 new-type tactical ballistic missile launchers... to the frontier military units" took place in capital Pyongyang with Kim presiding over the event. The missile launchers were an "up-to-date tactical attack weapon", Kim was quoted as saying in a speech.
