NORTH KOREA
NORTH KOREA: Yonhap notes "North Korea appears to be conducting business as
usual without any abnormal signs, a unification ministry official said Thursday,
amid persisting speculation over leader Kim Jong-un's health condition.
Speculation about Kim's health problems spiked after CNN reported earlier this
week that the U.S. has intelligence that Kim is in "grave danger" after a
surgery. South Korean officials have rejected the speculation, saying no unusual
signs have been detected that suggest something may be wrong with Kim's health.
On Thursday, the unification ministry also said nothing unusual appears to be
going on in the North."
