North Korea's Kim Orders Mass Production of Suicide Attack Drones: KCNA, Yonhap
Nov 14, 2024, 10:12 PM
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has ordered the mass production of suicide attack drones, according to state media reports from KCNA and Yonhap. Kim personally oversaw the testing of these drones, which are designed to crash into targets and explode. The decision comes amid accusations from Pyongyang that Seoul has been flying unmanned aerial vehicles over North Korean airspace, which it termed a 'war provocation.' Kim emphasized the urgent need to update military theory in light of the global proliferation of such drones. Concerns have also been raised about potential Russian involvement in strengthening North Korea's military capabilities, including its nuclear capacity.
