THERE WAS a massive flurry of global activity among the world’s security forces on Wednesday of last week after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un announced that they had successfully detonated a hydrogen bomb in a controlled test – their fourth since 2006.

While North Korea boasted about the test and their military capabilities as a result, many around the world questioned whether the test actually took place and if they had these weapons at all. There remains some doubt, however, it has emerged that Wexford is one of three counties in Ireland to have felt tremors at a time consistent with when the North Korean expirement was supposedly carried out.

The Dublin Institute of Advanced Studies (DIAS) and the Irish National Seismic Network (INSN) have announced that they recorded an unusual seismic event located in North Korea at 01.41 and these were consistent with Kim Jong-un’s announcement that it had conducted a major nuclear test.

The data showed that the event was an equivalent to an earthquake of 5.1 magnitude and the signal for this event arrived at DIAS seismic stations in Wexford, Galway and Donegal.

This essentially means that Korean supreme leader Kim Jong-un made the ground shake in Wexford with his nuclear tests! While the tests have been condemned by a large amount of world leaders, it once again puts across the chilling message that if nuclear war breaks out, nobody is safe – not even us in the sunny south east!
