Speculation that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is in a serious condition has ramped up and now satellite images have provided further clues.

Rumors have swirled regarding Kim's health after he missed the celebration of his late grandfather's 108th birthday on April 15..

North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un missed another national holiday, fueling rumors and reports of his health. But U.S. intelligence still sees no sign of him losing power.

China has sent a medical team to assess the health status of the supreme leader, Reuters reported.

The death of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un could spark a regional crisis, requiring a massive military and humanitarian response.

Here are some possible successors:

South Korean officials have spoken over the rumours that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is in “grave danger” after undergoing heart surgery.

North Korea has announced it carried out a “test of great significance” to the leadership of the country at the launch site close to the China border, adding that it will help to change the "strategic position" of Pyongyang.

North Korea has fired an unidentified short-range projectile twice, South Korean officials say, in the country's third weapons test in just over a week.

The newly appointed White House press secretary got into an "all-out brawl" with North Korean aides Sunday ahead of President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's meeting in front of the press.

Trump made history by becoming the first sitting US president to set foot in North Korean territory during his (possibly) surprise meeting with the North Korean leader.

A South Korean government official previously suggested that Trump could be meeting the Kim during his visit, but noted there were no plans for a trilateral summit that includes Moon, according to CNN.

President’s comment was the latest occasion in which he appeared to side with an adversary over US intelligence

The North Korea’s leader’s half brother who was killed when two women smeared his face with the nerve agent, was reportedly a CIA informant.

Trump won’t get far unless he “moves away from maximalist demands and demonstrates that he can be a credible partner in diplomacy,” said Arms Control Association’s Kelsey Davenport.

The U.N. Security Council passed a resolution in 2017 banning North Korea from exporting coal.

North Korea has fired a short-range missile eastward from the city of Wonsan on its east coast, according to South Korea’s Yonhap news agency.

President Trump has denied paying North Korea money for the medical care of comatose US student Otto Warmbier.

Vladimir Putin said North Korea will give up nuclear weapons, but fears for its security if it does so, and added he was prepared to share the results of his landmark meeting with Kim Jong-un with Donald Trump.
