U.S. President Donald Trump issued another warning to North Korea on Friday, August 11 with a reference to American weapons as being "locked and loaded," Reuters reports.

"Military solutions are now fully in place, locked and loaded, should North Korea act unwisely. Hopefully Kim Jong Un will find another path!" Trump wrote on Twitter.

The tweet came a day after his defense secretary said the United States was ready to counter any threat from Pyongyang.
