"We are analyzing North Korea's activities with a range of prospects in mind,... including possible preparations for a missile launch. We are meticulously tracking and monitoring the regime's every move.
The spokesman added that the intelligence services of both Seoul and Washington are in close consultations regarding activities at Pyeongyang's missile-related sites.
The comments came amid various reports and analysis indicating movement at Pyeongyang's nuclear and missile-related facilities based on U.S. intelligence officials and assessments of satellite pictures.
According to the New York Times on Saturday,... citing American intelligence estimates,... the regime has produced enough uranium and plutonium to fuel six new nuclear warheads since the Singapore summit last June.
