Did North Korea Explode A Hydrogen Bomb?

VOA: North Korea's 'Successful' Hydrogen Bomb Test Met with Skepticism

SEOUL — In a surprise and rare televised announcement over state television KCNA, North Korea said it successfully conducted a thermonuclear hydrogen bomb test Wednesday. Pyongyang's announcement was met with widespread skepticism.

"We've now become a nuclear state that also holds a hydrogen bomb,” said the KCNA announcer.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported a 5.1 magnitude earthquake near Punggye-ri, where North Korea conducted three previous nuclear tests in 2006, 2009 and 2013.
