North Korea plans high-level nuclear test ‘aimed at the U.S.’

[sasha031]

North Korea said on Thursday it planned to carry out a nuclear test aimed at its “arch-enemy” the United States in response to tightened UN sanctions, but offered no timeframe.

“We do not hide that the various satellites and long-range rockets we will continue to launch, as well as the high-level nuclear test we will proceed with, are aimed at our arch-enemy the United States,” the National Defence Commission said in a despatch carried by Pyongyang’s Korean Central News Agency

6. Is that literally 'high level', ie high altitude?

Or 'high level' as in "we hope this one will make a big bang"?
