The American Security Project’s North Korea Nuclear Program Fact Sheet was quoted in an article by Yahoo! news earlier today.

North Korea has only conducted two nuclear weapons tests in its history. The first, in 2006, produced a 0.2 -kiloton explosion, a far cry from the 15-kiloton bomb that had to be dropped from a plane on Hiroshima — and would itself be considered puny by today’s weapons standards. They tested a second one in 2009, but it wasn’t much larger. There is speculation that North Korea will perform a nuke test again soon, but their nuclear program is not as advanced as it needs to be.

The article comes a day after North Korea’s most recent missile launch. Click here to see the full article.
