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.
