North Korea claims it used explosives in May to seal underground tunnels where it tested nuclear weapons.


But many experts say it was all for show.


After visiting Pyongyang this month, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said leader Kim Jong-un promised to let inspectors in.


North Korea halted nuclear weapons and missile testing this year. But it's been criticized for keeping international inspectors out.
