North Korea says it is equipping its navy with nuclear weapons

North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un says the country is "equipping its navy with nuclear weapons."

The program to equip the navy with nuclear weapons is unerringly following the plan, Kim Jong-Un said during a ceremony on Tuesday, according to the state-controlled KCNA news agency.

This spring, the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) warned that North Korea was showing a "very serious increase" in its capacity to produce nuclear weapons.

Kim Jong-Un also spoke about plans to build 10,000-ton warships.
