Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said his government was making contingency plans in the event of a humanitarian crisis, should the US respond to North Korea's refusal to abandon its nuclear missile programme.

Mr Shinzo also urged North Korea to comply with UN resolutions to refrain from provoking the US into further military action.

North Korea launched a ballistic missile on Sunday but it blew up almost immediately, the U.S. Pacific Command said.

Today, US Vice President Mike Pence visited the demilitarised border between North and South Korea and repeated that the US era of "strategic patience" with Pyongyang was over.

However, Kim Jong-un has refused to back down, despite edging towards all-out war with the US.

The North Korean leader has promised to carry out another nuclear test by next week.

Should war break out, Japan is expecting a huge influx of asylum seekers fleeing the region.

Mr Abe told parliament he was considering the Japanese response to a potential crisis, including floods of refugees and how to evacuate Japanese citizens from South Korea.

He said: "We assume a series of responses in case of evacuees into Japan, such as protecting them, a process of landing, housing facilities and their management, and a screening whether our nation should protect them.

According to the Japanese National Security Council, there are almost 60,000 Japanese citizens living in South Korea.

The Prime Minister said he would be discussing the North Korea issue with Russian President Vladimir Putin at a summit later this month.

- He believes Trump will lead the world into WW3. But when?

The mystic man who in 2015 accurately predicted that Donald John Trump would become Americas 45th president has made yet another mind-boggling prediction.

Horacio Villegas, a self-proclaimed messenger of God, has predicated when World War Three (WW3) will start and end and who will be fighting.

According to Villegas, President Trump will become the king of Illuminati and will play key role in the looming WW3.

Interestingly, Villegas also reportedly predicted that President Trump will attack Syria, just before it happened last week.

Villegas further claims that the attack on Syria would eventually draw Russia, North Korea and China into the bloody conflict.

He predicts that May 13 will mark the day WW3 will begin. It will be on the 100th anniversary visitation of Our Lady of Fatima (the Virgin Mary) and mother of Jesus Christ.

The main message that people need to know in order be prepared is that between May 13th and October 13 2017, this war will occur and be over with much devastation, shock and death! Villegas claims.

Villegas, who reportedly relies on prophets, philosophies and bible references in his studies, also predicts that there will be a false flag that will lead to a spate of devastating attacks carried out under incorrect information. These attacks, he claims, will occur between April 13 and May 13 and will include North Korea and Syria.

After the US bombed Syria last week and dropped what CNN described as the mother of all bombs on Afghanistan, Villegas predicts North Korea is next on target list.

As to whether or not these wars will escalate into full blown world war, only time will tell.

End of times is near! Mystic who predicted Trump's presidency reveals exact day of World War 3 - TUKO.CO.KE

DONALD Trump has just dropped the Mother of All Bombs and these are some of the deadly weapons he could use to wipe out North Korea.

America launched its most powerful non-nuclear bomb ever to obliterate ISIS militants in a cave in Afghanistan near the Pakistan border.

Some 36 jihadis were killed by the Massive Ordinance Air Blast Bomb (MOAB) just months after Trump vowed to bomb the s*** out of ISIS.

It is the second time he has flexed his military muscles in just over a week after launching 59 Tomahawk missiles on a Syrian airbase.

His huge U-turn came as revenge for Syrias chemical attack which saw 79 adults and children choke to death in suspected sarin gas attack.

With war tensions raging between America, North Korea and Russia in the past few weeks, these are just some of the weapons Trump has in his back pocket.

As Donald Trump has promised to start an arms race, we take a look at the futuristic weapons being developed for the US military.

Nuclear weapons

As of last year America had an arsenal of just over 4,000 nuclear warheads ready for use against enemy states and around 2,800 set to be dismantled.

And Trump has the power to launch a nuke strike in just four minutes.

After being inaugurated, he was given the nuke codes printed on a small, credit-card size plastic tab which are kept in a briefcase named the nuclear football and carried by a security official by the president's side.

In the event of an attack Trump must call a press conference with his advisers but it can last as little as four seconds and only the President has the final say.

Expert Dr Alan Mendoza, from the Henry Jackson Society, told Daily Star Online: "Its the presidents choice at the end of the day. If he says were going in then youre going in."

Tomahawk missiles

Trumps Tomahawks rained down on an Syrian airfield last week after being launched from a warship in the Mediterranean sea.

The missile is known for its precision and ability to reduce collateral damage something that was vital given the risk of hitting Syrian civilians or Russian fighters.

The US army is continually working to improve and update the Tomahawk, which is often the first weapon used in an attack.

Some $439 million has been requested by the Navy to develop the software to be able to launch a Tomahawk attack effectively on a moving maritime target.

Weighing around 3,500lb the missiles can travel at speeds of up to 550mph with a range of more than 900 miles.

And theyve been used for decades by the US army in Iraq and Libya.

1 / 24

Many soldiers are used as a labor force to compensate for the ineffective North Korean economy, so the army is not only about military organization.

AH-64 Apache helicopter

Dubbed one of the best weapons in America's land force, the Apache is a force to reckoned with.

Armed with Hellfire missiles, a cannon and advanced sensors, the helicopter combines speed, accuracy and fire power to wipe out enemies.

But the Apache could have competition, with developers planning a new attack chopper which is quieter, faster and has a longer range.

Skorksy Boeing has released a new CGI video of his Sb>1 Defiant as part of the bid to introduce a next generation of helicopters to the US army.

Originally introduced to the US in 1986, the Apache has been a key weapon in Afghanistan, Iran and the Gulf War.

Virginia-class Attack Submarine

At 377 feet long and 34 feet deep, this submarine is classed as one of the most successful weapons programmes of the post cold-war period.

It's equipped with a dozen Tomahawk missile and torpedo launchers, as well as the most developed sonar technology around.

America has vowed to aggressively increase the size of its fleet of Virginia-Class Attack Submarines to keep up with Russia and China's submarine boom.

The newest submarine technology has just undergone sea trials, with the shipbuilders Newport News saying the new designs performed "exceptionally well".

The company said: "The submarine submerged for the first time and operated at high speeds on the surface and underwater.

"Washington will undergo a round of acceptance trials before delivery to the Navy."

GETTY

MQ-9 Reaper drone

Experts say the US is the leading nation in drone weapons after a decade of innovation in design and technology.

From stealth drones to to high altitude surveillance drones, America has been relentless in its pursuit of the latest drone warfare.

But drone strikes have been surrounded by controversy since their use in the War on Terror, with many innocent civilians killed as a result.

The US has retired its MQ-1 Predator, used since the Balkan wars in the mid-1990s, and replaced it with the more powerful MQ-9 Reaper drone.

The Reaper can carry four Hellfire missiles for 1,150 miles and hit top speeds of 230mph.

GETTY

The Mother of All Bombs

The MOAB, also known as Massive Ordinance Air Blast Bomb,outweighs both the Little Boy atomic bomb which devastated Hiroshima in 1945 and the Fat Man which destroyed Nagasaki days later.

Once it hits, the MOAB unleashes a devastating fireball that incinerates anything within 30 feet.

In the seconds after the bomb hit the tunnel in Afghanistan, all air would have been sucked out leaving ISIS terrorists suffocating to death as their lungs imploded.

Finally a fiery shockwave would radiate outwards for up to a mile, destroying everything and everyone in its path.

Thursday marked the first time the MOAB had been used in combat, in an unprecedented show of force from America against ISIS.

Military analyst Col Rick Francona said that it would "feel like a nuclear weapon to those in the area".

He said: "The pressure would send shockwaves through the tunnel systems and would kill everyone."

WW3 weapons: Donald Trump's deadly arsenal that could WIPE OUT North Korea - Daily Star

FOOTAGE of US warplanes preparing for combat is revealed as Donald Trump prepares to strike North Korea.

In the clip, US air force planes line up in a dramatic show of strength amid growing tensions over North Koreas nuclear weapons.

President Trump appears to be ramping up his military capabilities after dropping a Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb (MOAB) on ISIS tunnels in Afghanistan.

Earlier, the US unveiled a new devastating super weapon that nothing can survive.

The powerful tungsten-based missile dubbed the Kinetic Energy Projectile (KEP) can be fired at three times the speed of sound and destroys everything in its path.

And the US threat comes after warnings from top experts that North Korea will have as many as 60 nuclear weapons in just three years unless urgent action is taken.

GETTY

It is believed Kim Jong-un is in the final stages of preparing for his sixth nuclear test, bragging that the secretive state would ruthlessly ravage the US if Washington attacked.

Currently, North Korea is believed to have 33 kilograms of separated plutonium and up to 645 kilograms of weapons-grade uranium.

This alone is enough to build between 13 and 30 nuclear weapons.

But in Kadena Air Base in Japan a combat-ready US Airforce wing has been showing off its aircraft believed to be a clear warning to tubby tyrant Kim Jong-un.

Everything from mass evacuation plans and details on dealing with nuclear fallout are being prepared.

US warplanes prepare for WW3 battle in extreme warning to North Korea - Daily Star

A "MESSENGER of God" who accurately predicted the major events leading up to World War 3 has sensationally revealed the exact day war will begin.

The self-proclaimed "supernatural being" has revealed to Daily Star Online his visions and study of the Bible and prophecies has resulted in a date on which the nuclear war will fall.

Clairvoyant Horacio Villegas envisioned Donald Trump becoming US president as far back as 2015, predicting he would become the illuminati king who will bring the world into WW3

Chillingly he also prophesied the leader would attack Syria which later happened following a chemical attack and that it would bring Russia, North Korea and China into the conflict.

And just days ago the Catholic follower, who lives in Texas, US, had a dream in which I saw balls of fire falling from the sky and hitting the Earth.

DS

He told how people everywhere were running around trying to hide from this destruction, and that: I believe these were symbolic of the nuclear missiles that will fall on cities and people throughout the world.

Now the truth-seeker, who claims God has kept me single, and with no children just to focus on his message to the people has come up with D-Day.

It will fall, he says, on the 100th anniversary of the visitation of Our Lady of Fatima the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus which is May 13.

This was the day, according to the Catholic faith, that Our Lady visited a village in Portugal to warn people that if her requests to convert Russia to the faith were not followed, God would use the country to wreak havoc on the world.

She warned: Russia will spread her errors throughout the world raising up wars and persecutions against the Church, the good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be annihilated.

It is said Our Lady visited the same village in Portugal on six occasions, and on her last visitation on October 13, 1917, she announced: The war is going to end, and the soldiers will soon return to their homes.

Horacio believes this October date to be the day World War 3 ends, but warns it will be too late for many.

He told us: The main message that people need to know in order be prepared is that between May 13th and October 13 2017, this war will occur and be over with much devastation, shock and death!

The truth-seeker told us that before that day, however, a major false flag will take place that will be very very devastating, and he also has a time range for this.

Getty

He warns that this occasion which sees attacks carried out to spark conflicts based on false information will takes place between April 13 and May 13, and that as well as Syria, North Korea will also be involved.

He told us: The reason I feel the coming false flag might be during this Holy Week is because just as Christ suffered on a Good Friday at one time, the world is about to enter its Good Friday moment as well and it would fit in Gods timeline as to the start of this dark period in human period in human history that this war would be sparked near Good Friday 2017.

Horacio, who has published a series of books over the last 12 years on his claims, told Daily Star Online he believes the chemical attack in Syria was a false flag by the USA, adding that it just so happened to occur days after John McCain visited the area.

He added in his blog North Korea will be next on the USAs hit-list, saying: Russia is already being baited into war through Syria, just as the zionists were seeking and China will be baited through North Korea.

While tourists are free to visit the secretive state as part of strictly controlled tour groups, they are told to never take photos of soldiers by their handlers. These images taken by photographer Eric Lafforgue show the truth behind North Korean military service: a life of hard physical labour with the perks of visits to the nation's capital

1 / 24

Many soldiers are used as a labor force to compensate for the ineffective North Korean economy, so the army is not only about military organization.

The Roman Catholic follower told Daily Star Online he has also used prophets in his studies, including Nostradamus, who was a French physician and reputed seer who published collections of prophecies that have since become widely famous.

Among Nostradamus prophecies is: Mabus will soon die, then will come, a horrible undoing of people and animals, at once one will see vengeance, one hundred powers, thirst, famine, when the comet will pass.

Horacio says having long suspected Mabus might be Obama, it could now be the president of Syria, Assad, as there is now talk that Trump will target Assad for removal.

If Assad is bombed and killed, this could very much fulfil this prophecy because afterwards all hell would break loose.

Getty

Despite publishing his books for over 10 years, Horatio told us he has been trying to get the word out (of WW3) for years, but most people doubted these things.

He added: Last September I even sent out copies of my books to Catholic bishops and cardinals in an attempt to warn them so that they could warn the people, and they ignored me too!

But, 15 months before Trump won, I wrote that Trump was being set up to win and would win in August of 2015.

No one believed me then, until it happened.

The revelation comes after Daily Star Online reported that a biblical prophecy claims the world will end once Syria's capital city of Daascus is destroyed.

Tensions between the USA, North Korea and Russia, have continued to rise, and just yesterday the US dropped a huge bomb on an ISIS tunnel target in Afghanistan.

It is widely reported thatKim Jong-un is preparing to launch a nuclear bomb on Saturday to mark its national Day of the Sun.

Blogger and theorist Mike Cernovich claims Trump's security advisor General H.R. McMaster was planning on sending as many as 150,000 to the region in his latest effort to stamp out the threat from ISIS.

But two sources within the White House reportedly told Eli Lake, a commentator for Bloomberg, the real number will be anywhere between 10,000 and 50,000.

Lake claims that Gen. McMaster has been pressing the US President to take decisive action and invade Syria in a massive show of force to both ISIS and Russia.

He claims there are plans being discussed for a possible partnership with Kurdish freedom fighters in Syria who are battling to destroy the death-cult once and for all.

Jack Keane, a retired four-star Army general who is close to McMaster, believes a ground war is the only way to defeat ISIS.

"The president wants to defeat ISIS, he wants to win, what he needs is a U.S.-led conventional coalition ground force that can take Raqqa and clean out the Euphrates River Valley of ISIS all the way to the Iraq border," he said.

"Handwringing about U.S. ground troops in Syria was a fetish of the Obama administration. It's time to look honestly at a winning military strategy."

The news comes with international tensions at an all-time high.

This week Trump launched a massive airstrike on a Syrian airbase in response to a deadly chemical weapons strike believed to have been carried out by the country's president Bashar al-Assad.

The airstrike enraged the international community with Russian leader Vladimir Putin calling on the UN to investigatethe president's actions.

Trump also launched a deadly airstrike on a massive group of ISIS fighters in Afghanistan on Friday.

The strike used the "Mother of all Bombs", the most powerful non-nuke in the world, and killed over 36 militants in an apparent show of force.

The US has fired dozens of cruise missiles at Syria in revenge for a chemical weapons attack despite a warning from Russia not to get involved.

In a shocking warning, Lake said: "It is now up to Trump to risk starting World War III in Syria by sending some 50,000 'boots on the ground' to start with.

"This number will only grow in direct proportion with the casualties that emerge as this proxy world war enters its final, most destructive phase."

Trumps troops have already been carrying out massive exercises near the DMZ in Korea as fears of a war in the east are also growing.

THE Trump administration has admitted there is a "low level of trust" between the US and Russia after Rex Tillerson finally met Vladimir Putin for tense talks today.

The US Secretary of State spoke with the Russian President in the Kremlin to discuss the war in Syria.

They spoke for almost two hours before Tillerson said relations between Moscow and Washington are "at a low point" marked by serious distrust.

Despite Putin claiming yesterday that it was faked, Tillerson expressed his confidence that the US is right in its assessment that Assad used chemical weapons in a bombing attack last week.

"There is a low level of trust between our countries," he said.

"The world's two foremost nuclear powers cannot have this kind of relationship."

The Japanese Air Self Defence Force said fighter jets had been scrambled 1,168 times in the 12 months up to the end of March this year.

The overall figure is a sharp rise compared to the preceding 12 months when jets were deployed 873 times.

The previous high was 944 times back in 1984.

Of the total, a record 851 jets were used to ward off Chinese planes that were close to Japanese air space, a rise of 280 compared to the previous 12 months.

Russian planes, mostly bombers, were also of a particular concern after flying from the north and coming close to Japan, with 301 incidents - a rise of 4.5 per cent.

The figures come amid Japanese fears China is increasing its military activity as it attempts to gain influence in the East China Sea and areas of the western Pacific ocean, mainly focused around the chain of islands stretching for 870 miles from the mainland south toward Taiwan.
