朝鲜第二次间谍卫星发射失败，导致火箭爆炸，违反了联合国对此类发射的禁令。 North Korea's second spy satellite launch failed, resulting in rocket explosion, violating UN ban on such launches.

据朝鲜官方媒体报道，朝鲜发射第二颗间谍卫星的尝试因运载火箭在空中爆炸而失败。 North Korea's attempt to launch its second spy satellite into orbit ended in failure when the rocket carrying it exploded mid-air, according to state media. 此次发射是在韩国、中国和日本举行高层外交会谈数小时后宣布的，联合国对此予以谴责，并禁止朝鲜进行任何此类发射，认为这是试验远程导弹技术的借口。 The launch, announced just hours after high-level diplomacy talks between South Korea, China, and Japan, was condemned by the UN, which bans North Korea from conducting any such launches, viewing them as covers for testing long-range missile technology.
