SAPO10 September 2026 at 15:14

North Korea built a second facility for uranium enrichment at the Yongbyon nuclear complex, the country's main nuclear center. The facility is located north of the capital Pyongyang.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) expressed 'grave concern' about the nuclear threat posed by North Korea. The international organization is closely monitoring developments related to North Korea's nuclear program.

This information comes in a context of growing international tension regarding North Korea's nuclear ambitions. The Yongbyon complex has been frequently associated with the country's uranium enrichment program.

North Korean authorities have not officially commented on the existence of this new facility. The international community has been closely monitoring North Korea's nuclear activities through organizations such as the IAEA.
