The 36 year old Ruler was reported to have died from a heart surgery complications
The New York Post cited a Hong Kong broadcast network and a Japanese magazine in its reporting.
The Post adds that unconfirmed reports, attributed to senior party sources in Beijing, say an operation to insert a stent into Kim’s heart failed “because the surgeon’s hands were shaking so badly.”
The reports all share the same basic information – the 36-year-old dictator reportedly fell ill suddenly and was hospitalized for a heart procedure.
On Tuesday, CNN reported that the U.S. was “monitoring intelligence that suggests North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong Un, is in grave danger after undergoing a previous surgery.”
Outlets reporting his death say their sourcing indicates Kim lapsed into a vegetative state after the surgery went wrong and died either Friday or Saturday.
North Korea has yet to confirm the reports.
