Missile launchers have been spotted moving across the hermit kingdom alerting officials of potential nuclear activity.
This has triggered the US to ramp up their surveillance of North Korea, according to anonymous military sources.
Satellites, drones and other aircraft carriers have been used to monitor the region of Wonsan, within eastern North Korea.
Washington’s warning comes after a Pyongyang envoy said the nation is preparing a deadly “strike first” missile system as it continues to “accelerate” its nuclear weapon programme.
Choe Myong Nam, deputy ambassador at the North Korean mission to the United Nations in Geneva said the development of inter-continental ballistic missiles (ICBM), capable of striking the US, are being prioritised.
Despite warnings from Donald Trump’s administrations, Ms Nam said the hermit state is not afraid of being treated for more strictly than under Barack Obama’s presidency.
She added: “I think this is stemming from the visit by the Secretary of State [Rex Tillerson] to Japan, South Korea and China. We of course are not afraid of any act like that.
