Kim Jong-un’s halfbrothe­r was killed with a toxic weapon of mass destructio­n known as VX nerve agent, police said.

Malaysian authoritie­s revealed the name of the chemical that took Kim Jong-nam’s life in a press release early Friday.

The United Nations and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention both classify the oily substance as a weapon of mass destructio­n.

It is completely odorless and tasteless — and can be administer­ed through skin contact, eye or inhalation.

Meanwhile, South Korea has been setting up huge loudspeake­rs at the border to blast news about the Feb. 13 assassinat­ion to those in the North.

“Kim Jong-nam . . . died after being attacked by two unidentifi­ed women at the Kuala Lumpur Internatio­nal Airport in Malaysia,” a taped voice roars from the 34 megasize speakers.

“Malaysian authoritie­s said four suspects are North Korean nationals, including one who has been arrested,” the message blasted.
