North Korea has threatened to sink a US nuclear submarine deployed in
South Korean waters.

“The moment the USS Michigan tries to budge even a little, it will be
doomed to face the miserable fate of becoming an underwater ghost
without being able to come to the surface,” the North’s propaganda
website Urminzokkiri said.

“The urgent fielding of the nuclear submarine in the waters off the
Korean Peninsula, timed to coincide with the deployment of the super
aircraft carrier strike group, is intended to further intensify
military threats toward our republic.”

Donald Trump warns ‘major, major conflict’ with North Korea is
‘absolutely’ possible
The guided missile submarine USS Michigan has been joined by the USS
Carl Vinson aircraft carrier group in waters near the Korean
peninsula.

The website added that “whether it’s a nuclear aircraft carrier or a
nuclear submarine, they will be turned into a mass of scrap metal in
front of our invincible military power centred on the self-defence
nuclear deterrence.”

The aircraft carrier group began exercises with the South Korean navy
on Sunday after it completed drills with the Japanese navy.

The dispatch of the Carl Vinson was a “reckless action of the war
maniacs aimed at an extremely dangerous nuclear war,” the Rodong
Sinmun, the official newspaper of North Korea's ruling Workers' Party,
said in a commentary.

It comes after the hermit kingdom test-fired another ballistic missile
in a clear message of defiance aimed at Washington and its allies.

However, US officials said the medium-range ballistic missile
disintegrated mid-flight, minutes after launch, and fell into the Sea
of Japan.

President Donald Trump, asked about his message to North Korea after
the latest missile test, told reporters: “You’ll soon find out”, but
did not elaborate on what the US response would be.


The North has been conducting missile and nuclear weapons related
activities at an unprecedented rate and is believed to have made
progress in developing intermediate-range and submarine-launched
missiles.

Tension on the Korean peninsula has been high for weeks over fears the
North may conduct a long-range missile test, or its sixth nuclear
test, around the time of the 15 April anniversary of its state
founder’s birth.
