SEOUL (AFP) – Satellite imagery has indicated a high level of activity at North Korea’s main nuclear complex after leader Kim Jong-un ordered the production of weapons-grade nuclear material be ramped up, a United States (US) think tank said.
Washington-based 38 North said on Saturday that images from March 3 and 17 suggested that an experimental light water reactor (ELWR) at the country’s Yongbyon site was “nearing completion”.
