They presented the latest North Korean drones and missiles to Kim Jong-un – video
Kim Jong-un attended a drone exhibition in Wonsan-Kalma, urging faster development and military application of technology. His daughter, Kim Ju-ae, accompanied him, seen as a potential successor. The exhibition showcased over thirty types of drones, influenced by experiences from the Russia-Ukraine war and military cooperation with Russia. North Korea has become a key supporter of Russia in the conflict. Tensions between North and South Korea are escalating, with recent mine explosions injuring South Korean soldiers. North Korea denied responsibility and threatened retaliation. The situation is further complicated by joint US-South Korea military exercises, which North Korea views as provocations.
