Seoul reports that North Korea possesses two tons of enriched uranium, a quantity sufficient to manufacture up to 50 nuclear bombs.

South Korea's Minister of Unification, Chung Dong-young, stated that the highly enriched uranium from Pyongyang exceeds 90% purity and that uranium centrifuges are actively operating in four locations. This form of uranium, essential for the production of nuclear weapons, is now a priority in the regime's strategy, replacing plutonium. The international community, including the U.S. and South Korea, is closely monitoring these developments, fearing an escalation of tensions and possible harsher sanctions.
