A North Korean official has suggested “highest level” actions mentioned to by Kim Jong Un in a statement on Wednesday could refer to the detonation of an H-bomb on the Pacific Ocean, according to South Korean media.

据韩国媒体称，一名朝鲜官员暗示，朝鲜领导人金正恩(Kim Jong Un)在不久前声明中提到的“最高级别”措施可能指的是在太平洋引爆一枚氢弹。

South Korea’s state news agency Yonhap reported on Friday that North Korea’s foreign minister Ri Yong Ho said the “highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history” – mentioned in Mr Kim’s response to US President Donald Trump’s threat to “totally destroy” North Korea during a United Nations speech on Tuesday – may be the detonation of a hydrogen bomb on the Pacific.

韩国官方通讯社韩联社(Yonhap)周五报道称，朝鲜外长李勇浩(Ri Yong-ho)表示，金正恩所说的“史上最高级别的超强硬应对措施”可能是指在太平洋引爆一枚氢弹。美国总统唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)周二在联合国(UN)大会上发表演讲时威胁要“彻底摧毁”朝鲜，金正恩回应时提到了上面这句话。

“It could be the most powerful detonation of an H-bomb in the Pacific,” Mr Ri told reporters, according to Yonhap. “We have no idea about what actions could be taken as it will be ordered by leader Kim Jong Un.”

据韩联社报道，“这可能是在太平洋威力最大的一次氢弹引爆，”李勇浩告诉记者们，“我们不清楚可能会采取什么行动，下达命令的将是领袖金正恩。”
