Yesterday, the world was in shock when North Korea claimed that they successfully testing a Hydrogen bomb, a thermonuclear weapon that uses fusion of an isotope of hydrogen. Officials abroad doubt that the testing has occurred, due to no incriminating levels of radiation as of today. Norway based specialist are saying the test likely occurred deep underground, and is most likely directly correlated with the magnitude 5.1 seismic events that occurred near by. In response, U.S. flew over the Korean peninsula with a B-52 bomber, and an F16 fighter jet. A South Korean F15 flanked the bomber, showing that they would stand with the U.S. shall any conflict arise.

That's kind of scary. I don't really know much about the conflict over there, but from what I've gathered, it seems like North Korea is really far behind in technology, so if their claim is true, it is probably just meant to be intimidating
