Update: False Alarm Caused By Earthquake: N.Korea may have Conducted Another Nuclear Test
Update: False Alarm!
The Japanese government detected tremors on Wednesday that led it to suspect North Korea had conducted a second nuclear test, officials and news reports said.
Shortly after Japan said it suspected another test had been conducted, the country’s meteorological agency reported a magnitude-6.0 earthquake shook northern Japan.
Info coming in from Tokyo Reuters:
North Korea appears to have conducted another nuclear test, Japanese national broadcaster NHK said on Wednesday.
Japanese government sources had information that there was a tremor in North Korea this morning and they were checking on the possibility of a nuclear test, NHK said.
Defying warnings from its neighbors, the United States and the U.N. Security Council, North Korea announced on Monday that it had conducted its first-ever nuclear test. Pyongyang had earlier said a U.S. “threat of nuclear war and sanctions” had forced its hand.
Fox is reporting that the South Koreans have not detected anything.
Ms. Underestimated has video on the report.
