Revelation 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.

Important Takeaways:

  • North Korea released images of its uranium enrichment facility on Friday, showing leader Kim Jong Un touring the site.
  • Kim urged the facility to “push forward the introduction of a new-type centrifuge… so as to further strengthen the foundation for producing weapon-grade nuclear materials”.
  • The country, which conducted its first nuclear test in 2006 and is under rafts of UN sanctions for its banned weapons programs, has never publicly disclosed details of its uranium enrichment facility.
  • Such facilities produce highly enriched uranium — which is needed to produce nuclear warheads — by spinning the original material in centrifuges at high speeds.
  • North Korea’s nuclear weapons programs are banned by UN sanctions, but the country has long flouted the restrictions, thanks in part to support from allies Russia and China.
