(CNN) -- The United States will not accept North Korea as a "nuclear state," Secretary of State John Kerry warned on Tuesday, just hours after Pyongyang announced plans to restart a nuclear reactor it shut down five years ago. North Korea's decision comes as tensions on the Korean peninsula escalate over Kim Jong Un's threats to wage war against the United States and South Korea. "The bottom line is simply that what Kim Jong Un is choosing to do is provocative. It is dangerous, reckless. The United States will not accept the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) as a nuclear state," Kerry said during a joint briefing in Washington with South Korea Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se.

(CNN) -- A Sudanese Christian woman who was sentenced to die for refusing to renounce her faith -- and then released -- has been charged on two criminal counts after trying to leave the African country for the United States, her legal team said Wednesday. Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, who was detained with her American husband, Daniel Wani, and their two children at an airport in Khartoum on Tuesday, is accused of traveling with falsified documents and giving false information, according to her legal team. The family is currently being held in a Khartoum police station and has been refused bail.

By Paul Newman IN BARBADOS England’s nightmare winter took another self-inflicted turn for the worse when Ben Stokes was ruled out of the World Twenty20 after fracturing his hand punching a dressing rook locker. The bizarre twist emerged when it was revealed that the Durham all-rounder hit out in frustration after being dismissed first ball in what became a narrow victory for England here over West Indies in the final Twenty20 international before the team left last night for Bangladesh. ‘It was a huge error of judgment following a frustrating tour for me and I deeply regret my behaviour,’ said Stokes, who is replaced in England’s World Twenty20 squad by Warwickshire all-rounder Chris Woakes.
