The nuclear test caused a 6.3 magnitude earthquake in Punggye, which resulted in the collapse of several civilian buildings.

The explosion from the nuclear missile launch triggered aftershocks within eight minutes, hitting structures in a nearby village.

A dozen was killed and more than 150 people were injured due to the incident.

The North Korean government is receiving harsh criticism after being accused of not warning civilians of the nuclear test as several children were in school when the earthquake took place.

The impact also hit the local farmers, as several of their lands have been ruined by the earthquake.

“Displaced farmers are staying in temporary shelters or living with neighbors whose houses sustained less damage.”
