The South Korean presidential office on Tuesday dismissed the findings of a major report by a U.S. think tank as "nothing new," with a spokesperson also insisting that the DPRK has never committed to dismantling the reportedly “undeclared” Sakkanmol ballistic missile base.

Open-source satellite imagery taken in March and published by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) on Monday identified an undeclared operational missile base for short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs) known as Sakkanmol.
