North Korea has unveiled new, smaller nuclear warheads as leader Kim Jong-un calls for scaling up the production of weapons-grade nuclear material to expand the country’s arsenal.
State media KCNA on Tuesday released photos of the warheads, dubbed Hwasan-31, during Kim’s visit to the Nuclear Weapons Institute, where he inspected new tactical nuclear weapons and technology for mounting warheads on ballistic missiles, as well as nuclear counterattack operation plans.
