Corea del Norte dice que probó un dron nuclear subacuático

By Jordi Bou

January 19, 2024 - Corea del Norte dice que ha realizado una prueba de su "sistema subacuático de armas nucleares", afirmación que podría intensificar drásticamente las preocupaciones de que Kim Jong Un pueda estar preparándose para la guerra.

The test is in response of this week‘s joint military drills by South Korea, the United States and Japan, state media KCNA said on Friday.

It is the fourth time state media has reported on the country’s “Haeil” unmanned underwater
vehicle (UUV) development, a kind of torpedo North Korea says can be fitted with tactical nuclear warheads.

Dubbed “Haeil”, meaning tsunami, is intended to sneak into enemy waters and create a large radioactive wave through an underwater explosion.

The test comes in North Korea as tensions rise on the Korean Peninsula, with Pyongyang becoming increasingly fiery in its rhetoric on preparing the country for war.
