Various reports in American and South Korean state media Friday evening indicated that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un announced the halt of nuclear and missile tests in his country. The reports did not specify whether the tests would conclude permanently.

The South Korean newswire service Yonhap reports that the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) published the announcement from Kim, which read, "from April 21, North Korea will stop nuclear tests and launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles."

"The North will shut down a nuclear test site in the country's northern side to prove the vow to suspend nuclear test," the announcement concluded.
