North Korea Enriches Enough Uranium for Multiple Nuclear Bombs, Says Seoul
Seoul's spy agency reports significant advancements in North Korea's missile capabilities and uranium enrichment efforts.
- North Korea has likely enriched enough uranium to build a 'double-digit' number of nuclear bombs, according to South Korea's National Intelligence Service.
- Kim Jong Un's recent visit to a uranium enrichment facility signals a defiant stance towards Washington ahead of the U.S. presidential election.
- Seoul's spy agency estimates North Korea possesses about 70 kilograms of plutonium and a substantial amount of weapons-grade uranium.
- North Korea conducted missile tests shortly after Kim's facility visit, showcasing new missiles designed for both conventional and nuclear strikes.
- Analysts speculate North Korea may delay a nuclear test until after the U.S. election, potentially opting for other provocative actions like long-range missile tests.
