There is a reason President Trump has his eye on Kim Jong Un. North Korea preparing a nuclear weapon test this weekend. It could possibly happen Saturday morning.
Per the Daily Caller:
The North has reportedly installed a nuclear device inside one of the tunnels at its Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site, reports Voice of America’s Steve Herman, citing government and other sources. A provocation is expected Saturday, but it could possibly come sooner.
Saturday is the “Day of the Sun,” the 105th anniversary of the birth of North Korean founder. This would be the North’s sixth nuclear test.
“We have no comment at this time, but we will be watching closely,” a National Security Council official told VOA.
Steve Herman, a spokesman from the White House, sent out a series of tweets with regards to the nuclear tests.
An “unacceptable threat” is being posed by the #DPRK, says a senior administration official.
