North Korea nuclear test 'extremely regrettable': UN watchdog
Vienna, Sep 3: The head of the UN atomic watchdog on Sunday said that the North Korea's latest nuclear test is "extremely regrettable" and "in complete disregard" of the international community's repeated demands.
"Today's nuclear test by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) is an extremely regrettable act," International Atomic Energy Agency head Yukiya Amano said in a statement.
"This new test, which follows the two tests last year and is the sixth since 2006, is in complete disregard of the repeated demands of the international community."
