        @BBCBreaking If nuke test, will be interesting 2 see Chinese reaction. US banking on harsh response. I am betting it will be mild.

        @grumpyboy @BBCBreaking @BBCNews I think an accidental explosion at a nuke site does as well. Especially if it's a nuke that explodes.

        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews could be attention-seeking behaviour (ignored because of new aggro in Middle East), but what do N Korea want ?

        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews just had a thought, this could be a nuke test that has gone wrong - though of course, this would be covered up.
