Pentagon Says Can't Verify North Korea's Satellite Took Photos of US Buildings

The Pentagon cannot confirm the accuracy of claims a North Korean spy satellite took photos of the White House, Pentagon and US aircraft carriers, a Defense Department spokesperson told Sputnik in a statement.

Earlier in the day, KCNA reported that North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un received photos recently taken by their spy satellite of the White House, Pentagon, and US aircraft carriers at the naval base in Norfolk, Virginia.

"We cannot confirm the accuracy of this claim," the spokesperson said on Monday.
