North Korea might be working on biological weapons similar to anthrax in order to use them in war, according to a report by the Belfer Centre of Harvard University. The report claims that North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un is trying to prepare fatal agents such as small pox, the plague and cholera.
According to the report, “North Korea has 13 types of biological weapons agents which it can weaponize within ten days, and anthrax and smallpox are the likely agents it would deploy,” as quoted from the South Korean Defense Ministry. Only a few bottles of these agents could kill tens of thousands of people, the report said.
These could be deployed by means of “missiles, drones, airplanes, sprayers, and human vectors,” it went to say.
The Pyongyang Times in a report translated by North Korea’s official KCNA news agency called the U.S. President Donald Trump as a “hooligan” and “a lunatic fingering a nuclear button,” and South Korea as a “puppet state” helping the U.S.
