South Korea detects two earthquakes in North Korea

None

SEOUL, South Korea – South Korea's Yonhap news agency says a second quake was detected near North Korea's nuclear test site. It measured 4.6.

 

South Korea's military said earlier Sunday that North Korea is believed to have conducted its sixth nuclear test after it picked up seismic waves measuring 5.6. The U.S. Geological Survey called the first quake an explosion with a magnitude 6.3.

 

It came hours after North Korea claimed that its leader has inspected a hydrogen bomb meant for a new intercontinental ballistic missile.
