North Korean leader Kim Jong Un warned Pyongyang will not hesitate to launch a nuclear attack on the US if 'provoked with nukes', state media said Thursday.

Kim's warning follows a meeting between South Korea and the United States last week in Washington, where they discussed nuclear deterrence in the event of conflict with the North.

The meeting's agenda included 'nuclear and strategic planning', and the allies reiterated that any nuclear attack by Pyongyang on the United States or South Korea would result in the end of the North Korean regime.
