North Korea on Tuesday warned the United States and South Korea that any attempt to intercept its “tests of strategic weapon” would be considered a “declaration of war” against the reclusive nation.

Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, said her nation is prepared to take “overwhelming action at any time based on our judgment,” the state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported.
