The United Nations could hold a vote as early as Friday on a resolution that would slap new sanctions on North Korea, according to Reuters.

The resolution is reportedly aimed at blocking roughly 90 percent of refined petroleum product exports to the country, as well as the return of North Korean citizens working abroad.

The report comes as relations between Pyongyang and the international community are on the decline.
