September 8th, 2016Via: BBC:
North Korea is suspected of carrying out its fifth test of a nuclear bomb, after a magnitude 5.3 earthquake was detected close to its test site.
South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said it had been an “artificial quake”.
An unnamed South Korean government source said it was highly likely to have been a nuclear test.
There has been no confirmation from the North, but previous artificial earthquakes in that area and of that magnitude have all been nuclear tests.
