North Korea working at Punggye-ri test site, paving the way for more nuclear tests for the development of nuclear weapons, says a UN report
"Work at Punggye-ri nuclear test site paves way for additional nuclear tests for development of nuclear weapons," says a UN report prepared by independent sanctions monitors.
"Work at the Punggye-ri nuclear test site paves the way for additional nuclear tests for the development of nuclear weapons," independent sanctions monitors reported to the UN Security Council North Korea sanctions committee. The UN monitors also said investigations had shown Pyongyang was to blame for stealing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of crypto assets in at least one major hack. The monitors have previously accused North Korea of carrying out cyber attacks to fund its nuclear and missile programs.
They said North Korea launched 31 missiles combining ballistic and guidance technologies, including six intercontinental ballistic missiles tests and two missiles that it explicitly described as ballistic weapons.
