Activities intensify at NKorea nuke, missile sites
None
North Korea has intensified activities at weapons sites after threatening to stage more nuclear and missile tests in response to UN sanctions, a South Korean newspaper reported Thursday.
The Chosun Ilbo said busy movements of vehicles and people had been spotted in the northeastern county of Kilju, where the communist state carried out its first atomic test in October 2006. The North has also been speeding up construction of a new long-range missile launch site on the west coast, the largest-circulation daily said, citing a government source. South Korea's National Intelligence Service declined comment on the report. (AFP)
