WASHINGTON D.C. -
North Korea is threatening to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the United States. The statement came just before the U.N. Security Council voted this morning to impose tougher sanctions against the country for its recent nuclear test.
The United Nations Security Council voted unanimously on a new round of sanctions against North Korea in response to its third nuclear test last month. U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice says the sanctions will make it much harder for North Korea to pursue its nuclear program.
Kim Jong Un's regime threatened the United States with a preemptive nuclear strike, saying Washington is pushing to start a nuclear war against the isolated country. At a Senate hearing, lawmakers responded to the threat. The United States drafted the security council resolution along with China - North Korea's closest ally. It targets the money and banks used to supply North Korea with missiles and other weapons.
Meanwhile... U.S. troops continue to conduct military drills in South Korea, something that has angered the North so much it has threatened to scrap the 1953 cease-fire that ended the Korean War.
