United Nations approves new North Korea sanctions
The Security Council, 15-0, approves a hard new sanctions package in response to Pyongyang's ballistic missile test. It lowers refined oil imports sharply, orders North Korean workers home within 24 months, and intensifies ship inspections for smuggling coal and oil while excluding a full oil embargo and asset freezes. China and Russia urge dialogue and de-escalation. Haley touts widespread impact on North Korea’s exports and hard currency, noting a multi-billion impact from bans last September and new measures now in place.
