‘North Korea says it has tested an underwater drone that can unleash a “radioactive tsunami”.
The “secret weapon” was put in the waters off South Hamgyong province on Tuesday, state news agency KCNA says.
It cruised for over 59 hours at a depth of 80 to 150 metres and was detonated off its east coast, the report says.
But analysts urge caution on North Korea’s claim about the capabilities of the new weapon.
Tensions on the Korean peninsula have been running high, as the US and South Korea concluded the largest joint field exercises in five years on Wednesday.’
