North Korea is assessed to have it's rodong missiles capable of being nuclear armed.
Daniel Pinkston of South Korean think tank International Crisis Group has said that the communist nation has two underground nuclear warhead storage facilities near bases for its medium-range Rodong missiles, which are capable of striking Japan. The North is believed to have five to eight warheads, he said.
But he stressed it is unclear if North Korea has the capability to miniaturize the warheads and put them on Rodong missiles, which have a range of 620 to 930 miles (1,000 to 1,500 kilometers).
Pinkston said he obtained the information from intelligence officials from a country or countries that couldn’t be identified.
They assess that North Korea has deployed and assembled nuclear warheads for Rodong missiles.
