North Korea says it is ready to launch a long-range rocket that will send an orbiting satellite into space, despite warnings of sanctions if the launch goes ahead and fears Pyongyang is actually preparing to launch a ballistic missile.
The BBC's Damian Grammaticas was invited by North Korean officials to witness the preparations for the launch.
