North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said recently that the country has developed a hydrogen bomb.
The official Korea Central News Agency carried a report that Kim made the admission during a tour of the Phyongchon Revolutionary Site, a historic place that commemorates the work of his father Kim Jong Il and grandfather Kim Il Sung, according to NBC News.
The state news agency quoted Kim as commenting during then tour that the feats of Kim Il Sung “turned [North Korea] into a powerful nuclear weapons state ready to detonate a self-reliant [atomic] bomb and [hydrogen] bomb to reliably defend its sovereignty and the dignity of the nation.”
A hydrogen bomb is significantly more powerful than an atomic bomb.
