TL;DR Summary

North Korea claims that its recently launched reconnaissance satellite has captured photos of the White House, Pentagon, and key US military installations worldwide. However, doubts remain about the satellite's capabilities, as previous analysis suggests it may only be capable of capturing general snapshots and recognizing large targets. South Korea doubts its value as a reconnaissance asset, comparing its imaging capabilities to Google Earth. North Korea has not provided any third-party verification or released the alleged photographs to the public. Despite questions about its surveillance capacity, defense experts believe the launch could still benefit North Korea's development of nuclear, space, and ballistic capabilities, as it violated UN Security Council resolutions by using ballistic missile technology.
