North Korea Yongbyon nuclear site 'in full operation'

North Korea says its main nuclear facility, Yongbyon complex, is now in "full operation".

The country was improving its nuclear weapons "in quality and quantity", state-run news agency KCNA reported.

The North was ready to face US hostility with "nuclear weapons any time", the report added.

Yongbyon's reactor was shut down in 2007 but Pyongyang vowed to restart it in 2013, following its third nuclear test and amid high regional tensions.
