Angry mad uncle kingdom North Korea claims to have detonated a hydrogen bomb, but observers are skeptical because the new blast was no beefier than North Korea's earlier tests.
Nuclear experts and the South Korean military said the size of the blast was consistent with an atomic explosion, not a hydrogen bomb with far greater explosive power.
The United Nations Security Council was set to hold an emergency meeting in New York to discuss the international response to the test, which North Korea called an “H-bomb of justice” that it needed for defense against the United States. Japan, the United States and other nations dispatched “sniffer planes” to collect radioactive fallout for analysis.
