North Korea Likely Tests a Nuke

Seismic readings from North Korea suggest that they have tested a nuclear bomb.

The 4.9 earthquake was centered in the same area that previous nuclear tests have taken place.

It happened just before noon KST, on Tuesday.

South Korea has raised the alert status of it's military.

Japan is conducting tests to see if any radiation reached them.

For the last few weeks, the world has warned the North against any tests.

However, if they did in fact test a nuke, there is very little that the world could do, to punish them for the act.
