China sends doctors to North Korea as TV report fuels speculation on Kim Jong Un's health

China has sent a team of doctors to North Korea to help determine supreme leader of North Korea Kim Jong Un's health status, Reuters reported on Friday. Hong Kong Satellite Television reported that Kim was dead, though there has been no confirmation from U.S. sources at this point.

"While the US continues to monitor reports surrounding the health of the North Korean Supreme Leader, at this time, there is no confirmation from official channels that Kim Jong-un is deceased," a senior Pentagon official not authorized to speak on the record told."North Korean military readiness remains within historical norms and there is no further evidence to suggest a significant change in defensive posturing or national level leadership changes.

Kim's last confirmed public appearance was on April 11, at a politburo meeting, though state media also shared footage of him attending aerial assault drills the following day. It was his absence from April 15 Day of the Sun celebrations dedicated to his grandfather, North Korean founder Kim Il Sung, that first sparked speculation regarding his well-being.

These rumors were subsequently discounted by U.S. intelligence, with two U.S. officials telling Newsweek on Tuesday they had no reason to think that Kim had suffered any kind of serious illness. Similarly, at the time, South Korea's Yonhap News Agency cited a government official who said there was nothing unusual coming from North Korea that could suggest Kim was ill.

Send him ultraviolet lysol

Believe what China reports?

CCP Propaganda everywhere 😅😅😅 Xi Jinping new dictator of north Korea

It has been rumored shortly before this that French or Russian doctors had been sent to North Korea to cure this rocketman. North Korea is an under-resourced country where leader needs to rely on foreign medical treatment.

If those rumors were to become reality, Trump will take the credit for taking KimJongUn down, the one of the most feared men in the continent of Asia. just wait for it!

They wouldn’t need to send doctors if he’s dead.

Man I’d hate to be on his medical team, if he dies they will all be fed to the tigers.

Brain dead

Dotard sends his thoughts and prayers. 😀

If all else fails, I am sure our sarcastic medical genius of a leader will be more than happy to send bleach mixed with saline to go into his IV bag as a good will gesture.

Yeah with that antidote in hand! Biological Warfare Sympathy

If the fat bastard had Covid-19 after telling the world N Korea had 0 cases it’d be....fucking lovely.

Huh interesting something definitely to stay tuned to

He has covid and as an obese person he's likely to not survive without ventilator

ok

Let him die
