North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un's sister and member of the State Affairs Commission, Kim Yo-jong (pictured), remarked that the country will successfully launch a spy satellite and place it in orbit soon.

According to her statement shared with the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), Kim Yo-jong also slammed the West for criticizing North Korea's attempts to launch a satellite, stressing that the United States "and all other countries, which have already launched thousands of satellites, should be" then "denounced" too.

Earlier this week, North Korea attempted to launch a military reconnaissance satellite, however, the effort ended in failure.
