WATCH: North Korea airs purported footage showing Trump saluting one of Kim Jong-un's generals

North Korea's state news service this week has aired footage that purports to show President Donald Trump saluting one of leader Kim Jong-un's generals.

The footage, which has not yet been verified as authentic, shows Trump in Singapore shaking hands with assorted North Korean officials.

When he approaches a uniformed general, the president initially holds out his hand for a handshake. The general responds by giving the president a salute -- and the president, in turn salutes back.

The general then extends his hand for a formal handshake.

Watch the video, which was captured by the BBC's global media monitoring service, below.
