Kim Jong Un, leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), has ordered officials to develop new intercontinental ballistic missiles and a larger nuclear arsenal to counter U.S.-led threats, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Sunday.

Kim told a meeting of the ruling Workers' Party that the DPRK must secure "overwhelming military power" to defend its sovereignty and security.
