North Korea has started to threaten the United States not just with a nuclear strike, but with a potentially devastating electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack.
In its sixth nuclear test on Sept. 10, North Korea claimed it detonated a hydrogen bomb. This H-bomb, according to a statement issued by the regime, “is a multi-functional thermonuclear nuke with great destructive power which can be detonated even at high altitudes for super-powerful EMP (electromagnetic pulse) attack according to strategic goals,” reported AP.
