The fear of a second Korean war

Just a week ago, Typhoon Hinnamnor swept across South Korea, leaving chaos in its wake. Now, in mid-September, the sky in the demilitarized zone, the border between South Korea and North Korea, is a late-summer blue. According to the satellite images, everything has been ready at the Punggye-ri test site for months. Perhaps it's because of the monsoon rains that accompany North Korean summers that the test was delayed. The test facilities are underground and could be flooded. Now it is dry and therefore ideal weather for a nuclear weapons test.

Experts suspect that North Korea will test nuclear weapons for the first time since 2017 within the next four months. In early September, North Korea enshrined its nuclear weapons policy in law. Can an escalation still be prevented?
