WASHINGTON DC: North Korea's Kim Jong Un "will be tested like never before," US President Donald Trump said on Friday as the two leaders continued to trade insults and Pyongyang threatened to test a hydrogen bomb over the Pacific Ocean.

At UN, Trump says US may have to 'totally destroy' North Korea

"Kim Jong Un of North Korea, who is obviously a madman who doesn't mind starving or killing his people, will be tested like never before," Trump tweeted, one day after announcing additional sanctions on Pyongyang.
