North Korea inadvertently gives away location of nuclear weapons facility with pictures of Kim Jong-un visit

North Korea appears to have inadvertently given away the location of its secret site for building nuclear bombs, after releasing pictures of Kim Jong-un taking a tour of a uranium enrichment facility.

The images, posted online by a state-run news agency, offer an extremely rare glimpse into the isolated nation’s nuclear weapon development program that has kept neighboring South Korea and Japan, as well as their allies, on edge.

The photos show Mr Kim visiting a bright, sterile facility, walking between long rows of cylindrical machinery which is used to produce weapons-grade nuclear material for what the North describes as its growing arsenal.

A report accompanying the photos on the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) website did not reveal the facility’s location.
