MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 04th August, 2020) North Korea is continuing its nuclear weapons program and a few countries think it has probably developed small nuclear devices for its ballistic missiles' warheads, Reuters reported citing a confidential UN report.

The interim report, seen by Reuters, submitted to the UN Security Council North Korea sanctions committee Monday, was compiled by an independent expert panel.

The document said unidentified countries believed North Korea's past six nuclear tests could have helped it develop miniaturized nuclear devices.

"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is continuing its nuclear program, including the production of highly enriched uranium and construction of an experimental light water reactor. A Member State assessed that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is continuing production of nuclear weapons," the news agency cited an excerpt from the report.
