North Korea begins testing mounting anthrax onto ICBMs, report says

North Korea vows to beef up nuclear arsenal Kim Jong Un seeks to increase quality and

number of weapons.

North Korea is beginning tests on mounting anthrax onto intercontinental ballistic missiles

that would strike the U.S., a report said on Wednesday just two days after the White

House's U.S. National Security Strategy stated Kim Jong Un is pursuing chemical and

biological weapons.

The Hermit Kingdom is beginning experiments to test out if anthrax can endure immense

heat and pressure it will have to endure when loaded into an ICBM and launched toward the

earth's atmosphere, Japan's Asahi newspaper reported, citing an unidentified person connected

to South Korea's intelligence services.

"North Korea has started experiments such as heat and pressure equipment to prevent

anthrax from dying even at a high temperature of over 7,000 degrees generated at the time

of ICBM's re-entry into the atmosphere," the report stated.

"In part, there is unconfirmed information that it has already succeeded in such experiments."

On Monday, the White House released its U.S. National Security Strategy that said North

Korea is "pursuing chemical and biological weapons which could also be delivered by missile."

"North Korea—a country that starves its own people—has spent hundreds of millions

of dollars on nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons that could threaten our homeland,"

the document said.

North Korea vehemently denied the report and accused the U.S. of cooking "up untruths

as truths" and using biological weapons during the Korean War.

"Properly speaking, it is the U.S. stereotyped method to cook up untruths as truths, stubbornly

insisting that black is white and fabricating anything for satisfying their aggressive greed,"

the state-run Korean Central News Agency stated.

"And the U.S. itself is an empire of evils full of plots, fabrications, lies and deceptions."

It added, "It is none other than the U.S., chattering on 'morality' and 'civilization,'

the criminal state that massacred the Korean people by bacteriological weapons during the

Korean War and inflict sufferings upon the innocent people by continuing even now to

openly use the internationally prohibited weapons."

South Korea has long suspected North Korea was developing biological weapons.

A report by Harvard Kennedy School's Belfar Center for Science and International Affairs

stated the dictatorship may have "anthrax and smallpox" pathogens that could be turned

into weapons.

North Korea is believed to have started its chemical and biological weapons program in

the early 1960s and began possibly weaponizing biological agents in the 1980s, according

to the report.

Kim Jong Un's scientists launched its "greatest" ICBM in late November that the regime claimed

could carry a "super-heavy nuclear warhead" that could strike "the whole mainland of

the U.S."

However, North Korea has set to perfect its re-entry technology.
