Following the test detonation of a warhead-capacity nuclear device in Punggye-ri region of North Korea, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke at the Security Council stakeout at UN Headquarters in New York City, NY, condemning the test as a yet another violation of all preceding Security Council-imposed sanctions. The most recent test -- the fifth of a nuclear explosive device -- caused a magnitude 5 earthquake, has alarmed the international community as an indication that North Korea has made considerable advances toward the development of a nuclear-capable ballistic weapon; the Security Council plans to discuss the situation in closed-door consultations on the same day.
