North Korea 🇰🇵 says, it successfully tested a hydrogen bomb 💣 meant for an ICBM

North Korea said Sunday that it successfully conducted a test of a hydrogen bomb meant for an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM).

The announcement, made on state-run TV, came a few hours after a 6.3-magnitude "explosion" was detected in North Korea, according to the United States Geological Survey announced Sunday.

The seismic activity occurred at 12:29 p.m. local time, just hours after North Korea claimed that leader Kim Jong Un had inspected the loading of a hydrogen bomb into a new intercontinental ballistic missile.

According to the USGS, the seismic activity -- which the scientific agency has not identified as an earthquake per se -- occurred 24 kilometers east northeast of Sungjibaegam, North Korea.
