North Korea made their plans of testing a hydrogen bomb over the Pacific Ocean known last Thursday, when the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in New York took place, Fox News reports.
According to Yonhap News, the hydrogen bomb that North Korea will launch could be the most powerful that they have ever tested.
It was also confirmed that the testing of the hydrogen bomb is an attack against the United States after Trump threatened to "destroy" North Korea if Kim continued to test nuclear missiles.
Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho also shared that there could be more attacks coming from North Korea, depending on the orders of Kim.
"It could be the most powerful detonation of an H-bomb in the Pacific. We have no idea about what actions could be taken as it will be ordered by leader Kim Jong-un," explained the minister.
Meanwhile, Trump has branded Kim as "rocket man" during his speech at the UN assembly, the Huffington Post reports.
"Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime," said the U.S. president, before threatening North Korea of destruction.
However, Kim gave Trump a brand as well, calling him "Dotard" Trump, referring to the U.S. president as an "imbecile," BBC confirmed.
"Action is the best option in treating the dotard who, hard of hearing, is uttering only what he wants to say," the North Korean leader said in a statement regarding Trump's threats.
