Kim Jong Un Dead? Twitter Post Appears Skeptical

Kim Jong-Un is dead according to a twitter user. The North Korea dictator was reported to be dead by a false twitter account of Han Min-goo, from the Korean Defense Ministry. Since then the account has been suspended making it appear even more that the announcement could be just a rumor.

On April 4, the false account had tweeted, "URGENT. Unconfirmed report from Korean military sources. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has been killed or seriously injured. No details."

Now rumors are swirling around like wildfire that the dictator had died. There haven't been any confirmed reports, yet many are highly skeptical.

According to Mirror, reports say that it was done by military intervention. Another news site says that rumors are spreading that the death might've been caused by a secret assassination operation.

The news came after a month of many threats of nuclear bombs from Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, especially toward South Korean and the United States, but also Russia, Japan, and China.

Just 10 days ago, a propaganda video was posted revealing a rocket heading to Washington D.C. Then again, it was recently posted on an official North Korea website a video of rockets hitting South Korea's Blue House and other government buildings hit with a ball of fire.

The Dail Mail reported, "The ongoing joint exercises have been larger than usual and included a special operation to 'decapitate' the North Korean leadership in the event of a full-scale conflict."

Kim Jong-Un has been in office ever since his father, Kim Jung Il stepped down from office after five years. During his time in office, he was known for being very brutal, ordering military officials to kill his own uncle Jang Sung-taek and ex-chief of military staff Ri Yong-gil.

Though many see the news of Kim Jong-Un's death as just a fib, if it's true, it can cause great problems for the countries in the Asia Pacific region, India reports.
