The destruction was undertaken in an attempt to reduce regional tensions.

At least three nuclear tunnels appear to have been destroyed at the Punggye-ri nuclear test site in North Korea on Thursday. The information comes less than 24 hours after Donald Trump called off his summit with Kim Jong-un.
