SEOUL, Jan 17 ― South Korea has sanctioned two individuals, three entities and 11 ships linked to North Korea's nuclear and missile programmes, its foreign ministry said today.
The sanctions announcement comes days after North Korea fired a new intermediate range, solid-fuel hypersonic missile, which South Korea and the United States strongly condemned as a serious violation of UN Security Council resolutions.
The newly blacklisted targets have chiefly been involved in illegal energy smuggling at sea, the ministry said.
