North Korea is reportedly moving closer to launching another long-range missile, despite international concern.
South Korean media said the North has moved its most advanced missile to a new launch site on the west coast.
US Defense Secretary Robert Gates said there are signs of work being done on a long-range missile, but he said the North\'s intentions were not yet clear.
A regional summit has convened in South Korea to discuss the North\'s recent nuclear and missile tests.
After the opening day of the summit, the leaders there agreed that North Korea\'s recent nuclear test was a provocation, which seriously undermines peace and stability in north-east Asia and the world.
