Monday, 30 August 2021 (YJC)_ The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a report that it was concerned about the resumption of operations at North Korea's nuclear facilities.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a report that it was concerned about the resumption of operations at North Korea's nuclear facilities, saying it was Pyongyang's first nuclear operation since early 2019.
Satellite images of North Korea's nuclear facilities, which indicate the resumption of some activities, have raised concerns with the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The IAEA said in its annual report that North Korea appears to have restarted a nuclear reactor that could produce weapons-grade plutonium.
Claiming North Korea's efforts to expand its nuclear arsenal, the IAEA said signs of activity at the Pyongyang 5-megawatt reactor, capable of producing plutonium for nuclear weapons, were seen for the first time since late 2018, according to Reuters.
The report states: Since early July 2021, there have been signs of operational activity, such as the cooling water outlet from the Yongbyon reactor.
