North Korea plans fourth nuclear test

With the North Korean atomic sites being active with patterns of work similar to the ones that were registered before the atomic tests, a South Korean government official mentioned that the nation is yet again preparing to test-launch another missile triggering further tension in the area on Monday.

With higher intensity and frequency of warnings in the previous states, North Korea has been isolating itself further from the global fraternity. It has announced that it was already at war with Seoul and also threatened to target US.

The nuclear test site, Punggye-ri has recorded activity with more weapons and manpower suggesting another nuclear test launch, JoonAng Ilbo newspaper in the South Korea reported. The South Korean official who was the source of the news in the S Korean paper says that similar activities in the area are a cause of concern and had to be monitored to ensure safety especially after the thrid nuclear test. 

At the moment there are two mid-range missiles, Musudan as hinted by S Korea, that are mounted on mobile launchers on the east coast of North Korea's southern borders.
