Amid recent satellite images hinting of activity at North Korea's missile launch facility,... President Donald Trump once again reiterated that he would be "very disappointed",... if testing was resumed.
But he emphasized that his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is still very good... despite the 'no-deal' Hanoi summit.

"Let's see what happens. But, I would be very disappointed if I saw testing... but I have a feeling that our relationship with North Korea - Kim Jong-un and myself - Chairman Kim - I think it's a very good one. I think it remains good."

While giving himself credit for the progress made with North Korea,... Trump said he would be surprised in a "negative way",... if the North Korean leader did anything... outside the boundaries of their common understanding.

Meanwhile, NPR and CNN reported... that satellite imagery of Sanumdong, another North Korean missile facility... may be showing possible signs of preparations for a missile launch.
This image taken just before the Hanoi summit,... showed vehicles near the site and cranes being erected.
While the report raised speculation that the North could be assembling a rocket,... it said the latest images taken on Friday showed no vehicle activity and one of the cranes gone.
