North Korea’s dictator, Kim Jong Un, vows to wipe out the U.S. with a “hail of fire.” U.S. President Donald Trump threatens to “totally destroy” North Korea. Those tensions have brought the world closer to a nuclear conflict than at any time since the end of the Cold War (1947-1991).
Such a conflict could have horrific consequences. The use of a single nuclear weapon could level whole cities and kill millions of people.
