The United Nations sanctions monitors are investigating dozens of suspected cyberattacks by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), which might have raked in $3 billion to help it further develop its nuclear weapons program, Reuters reported Thursday, citing an unpublished report from the UN.
"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea continued to flout Security Council sanctions," a panel of independent sanctions monitors reported to a Security Council committee.
"It further developed nuclear weapons and produced nuclear fissile materials, although its last known nuclear test took place in 2017," wrote the monitors. They said Pyongyang had continued ballistic missile launches, put a satellite into orbit and added a "tactical nuclear attack submarine" to its arsenal.
