North Korea announced it will deport an American citizen who has been detained for over one month for entering the country illegally. The release is seen as a sign of goodwill from the North Koreans, who have previously held U.S. detainees for much longer periods, often using them as pawns in political negotiations. In more news from North Korea, leader Kim Jong-un has reportedly supervised a test of an advanced, high-tech weapon, according to North Korean state media.
