North Korea’s nuclear test site has collapsed, scientists confirm

North Korea’s mountain nuclear test site has collapsed, putting China and other nearby nations at unprecedented risk of radioactive exposure, two separate groups of Chinese scientists studying the issue have confirmed.

The collapse after five nuclear blasts may be why North Korean leader Kim Jong-un declared on Friday that he would freeze the hermit state’s nuclear and missile tests and shut down the site, one researcher said. 

The last five of Pyongyang’s six nuclear tests have all been carried out under Mount Mantap at the Punggye-ri nuclear test site in North Korea’s northwest.

They have others, this sounds like the main one though. Radiation danger.

There is a rumor that some scientists may have been killed.

There is also a rumor that these were Iranian tests, similar to what happened between South Africa and Israel.
