Reuters: A Kim Jong-un train was seen at a North Korean resort

The satellite images, reviewed by a Washington-based North Korean research center, showed a special train, possibly belonging to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, at a resort within the country this week.

The details came amid conflicting reports about Kim’s health and whereabouts.

The United States has confirmed that it closely follows reports on the health of the North Korean leader, and is expected to transfer the reins of power in the country, upon his departure, to a member of the ruling family.

“We are following these reports very carefully,” Robert O’Brien, the United States’ national security adviser, said in an interview with Fox News, commenting on the news about Kim Jong Un’s condition after he underwent surgery. .

Responding to a question about the identity of the political caliph in North Korea, O’Brien emphasized in an interview with CNN: “The basic assumption indicates that it may be a family member.” The US national security adviser added: “But again, it is too early to talk about this because we do not know the status of ruling party leader Kim and we will wait to see how things are going.”

And some media outlets previously reported that the North Korean leader, who, according to available information, is 36 years old, fell ill and was “in great danger” and recently underwent cardiovascular surgery.

The North Korean leader reportedly suffered a healthy setback and underwent heart surgery, and recently did not attend his grandfather’s birthday celebrations on April 15.

A Sky News report said North Korea’s history witnessed periods when the country had no president or successor to the president, the first before Kim Jong Sung, Kim Jong Un’s grandfather, was named president to the early 1970s, and the second when his father, Kim Jong Il, died. In 1994, at that time, the office of President remained vacant without assuming any personality for this position, and the third term since 2011, that is, since President Kim Jong Un assumed the presidency until today.
