Most of the landfill Phungeri, where North Korean specialists carried out an underground nuclear test, It is unsuitable for further use, TASS transmits a message the Wall Street Journal.
Publication with reference to researchers from Singapore, Germany, China and the US claims, that "the nuclear test site damage, that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has promised to close, more serious, than expected based on earlier estimates ".
Last year, it was reported, that the object struck at least a few tunnels, presumably, due to the nuclear test, "As a result of which the rock a few kilometers from the venue has become the mobile".
They hit not just one or two tunnels, a vast space around the landfill. These data allow us to conclude, that a significant part of the landfill Phungeri unusable, and further testing may require a significant investment to build a new facility elsewhere, the newspaper quoted Sylvain Berbota from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. The studies were conducted with the help of space-based radar.
The publication also notes, the new findings confirm the position of the US officials, who spoke, that the solution of the North Korean leader to stop the operation of the landfill "has no practical significance".
