China should remain neutral if North Korea launches an attack that threatens the United States, a Chinese state-run newspaper said on Friday, sounding a warning for Pyongyang over its plans to fire missiles near the US Pacific territory of Guam, The Independent reported. 

North Korea dismissed warnings by U.S. President Donald Trump that it would face "fire and fury" if it threatened the United States as a "load of nonsense" and outlined detailed plans on for a missile strike near the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam.

North Korea has said it is considering a missile strike on the US Pacific territory of Guam, just hours after Donald Trump warned the regime that any threat to the United States would be met with “fire and fury”.

North Korea angrily insisted tough new United Nations sanctions would not stop it from developing its nuclear arsenal and warned yesterday that it would not negotiate while being threatened by the United States.

The UN Security Council will vote on a draft resolution on aggravating sanctions against North Korea on Saturday at 22.00 (Bulgarian time). This was reported by TASS as one of the Western diplomats representing a member of the SS.

The number of North Koreans slipping illegally into Thailand has surged in recent months, according to immigration bureau officials, as tensions mount on the Korean peninsula because of Pyongyang's weapons programs.

Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and American President Donald Trump vowed to take “concrete actions” to discourage further North Korean belligerence following yet another missile launch last week in an extended phone conversation Monday.

The United States said July 30 the time for talk over North Korea was "over," spurning a U.N. response to Pyongyang's latest ICBM launch in favor of bomber flights and missile defense system tests.
