North Korea may be about to carry out another nuclear test, the British ambassador in Pyongyang has said.
North Korea carried out a nuclear test in May - a move that experts said put it closer to having a working nuclear bomb.
"We cannot rule out that a further nuclear test will take place," said Peter Hughes, the British ambassador to North Korea.
"Yesterday, two short-range missiles were launched and you'll have seen reports that there may be a launch of an ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) in the coming days or weeks," he said.
North Korea's rocket launch in April was widely seen as a disguised long-range missile test that violated UN resolutions banning it from ballistic missile launches.
It test-fired short-range missiles on Thursday. Officials and news reports in South Korea said four short-range missiles had been fired.
Last month, the United Nations Security Council approved wider sanctions against North Korea over the nuclear test, banning all weapons exports from the hermit state and most arms imports.
Mr Hughes said North Korea's response to British concerns over its recent actions had been that "the threat towards their country is intensifying and they have no other option but to strengthen their deterrent".

"I have seen no willingness on their part to re-engage in negotiations whatsoever," he said.
But he said Britain hoped that "sanctions, together with the wider framework of measures, ... will put sufficient pressure on the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) to reconsider its position on negotiations".

24 April 2004
North Korea appealed for international aid yesterday after a gigantic explosion involving two trains flattened the small industrial town of Ryongchon close to the Chinese border.
The explosion on Thursday happened about nine hours after the country's Stalinist leader, Kim Jong-Il, passed through the area on his return from a state visit to China. It is conceivable that the blast was an attempt on his life.
The North Korean capital, Pyongyang, reported 150 dead, 12,249 injured, 1,850 households destroyed and another 6,350 homes partly destroyed in the town, which has a population of 20,000. Foreign aid workers will reach the stricken area today. John Sparrow, a Red Cross spokesman, said: "When you look at the number of buildings destroyed, you have to be afraid of what you're going to find. We are anticipating that the casualty figures will increase.''
...
The explosion on Thursday in North Korea levelled the train station, a school and apartments within a 457-metre radius. South Korea's Yonhap news agency quoted Chinese witnesses as saying there were about 500 passengers and railway officials in the station at the time. The injured "will be suffering greatly from ... burns and those types of injuries that leave you traumatised,'' Mr Sparrow said.
...
China's Xinhua News Agency said the blast was caused by ammonium nitrate - a chemical used in fertilisers - leaking from one train. Russia's Itar-Tass news agency reported from Pyongyang that the explosion was caused by gunpowder intended for use in an irrigation canal. "The Truth is so valuable that it must be protected with a bodyguard of lies"
