The U.S. has told North Korea it won't be allowed to become a nuclear power, and America will defend both South Korea and Japan if they come under attack.
Speaking in the South Korean capital Seoul, the U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said it would be "a huge mistake" for the North to conduct any new missile tests.
Matthew Jones is the Public Affairs manager at Christian Solidarity Worldwid.
He told Premier's News Hour there's no way of knowing what will happen next:
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
