On September 3, 2017 a large seismic event was detected near the Punggye-ri nuclear test site in North Korea (officially known as the Democratic People Republic of Korea or DPRK) by several geophysical monitoring institutions (for example, the USGS announced it as mb 6.3 event, the CTBTO announced it as a mb 6.1 event). Within a few hours North Korea declared it had carried out its sixth underground nuclear explosion, a test of a hydrogen bomb.
