North Korean leader Kim Jong‑un has agreed to shut one of the country's main missile testing and launch sites.

He signed a pledge to permanently close the Tongchang‑ri facility, after talks in Pyongyang with his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae‑in.

Moon said Both leaders also "agreed on a way to achieve denuclearisation" on the Korean peninsula.

Kim said he hoped to "visit Seoul in the near future" ‑ he would be the first North Korean leader to do so.

China has welcomed the outcome of the inter‑Korean summit, saying both sides had found "new and important common ground".
