The U.S. military is tracking a flagged North Korean ship suspected of proliferating weapons material in violation of a U.N. Security Council resolution passed last Friday, FOX News has learned.

The ship, Kang Nam, left a port in North Korea Wednesday and appears to be heading toward Singapore, according to a senior U.S. military source. The vessel, which the military has been tracking since its departure, could be carrying weaponry, missile parts or nuclear materials.

Yes, Yes, I know, Fox news, but more sources as I find them.

You knew it was only a short matter of time before the confrontation at sea occurred.

There seems to be a question of one or up to three cargo-ships being tracked.
(this last point is "UNCONFIRMED"

Remember, from China Daily, China Expressly forbid the use of force to enforce the sanctions agreed on.

More information and sources as I find them.
