"We'll keep track of the seismic activity to see whether it continues to indicate this underthrusting of the Mediterranean subsurface underneath North Africa, " said Rinus Wortel.
The U.S. Geological Survey said it detected seismic activity with a magnitude of 5.1, bigger than the seismic activity produced in North Korea's previous two blasts.
As the Korean peninsula is not prone to seismic activity, this is highly likely to indicate a nuclear test, says the Korean Yonhap news agency.
