North Korean leader Kim Jong-un oversaw the testing of new 'suicide drones', which are designed to crash into and destroy targets. The tests demonstrated the drones' capabilities, including identifying and hitting mock targets such as a replica of South Korea's K-2 battle tank. Kim emphasized the need to develop and produce more such drones, incorporating AI for enhanced performance, to bolster North Korea's military readiness. Analysts suggest the drones may share similarities with Russian and Iranian models, indicating possible technological exchanges. The tests coincided with the US and South Korea conducting joint military drills, which have heightened tensions in the region. Kim's actions reflect North Korea's ongoing efforts to enhance its military capabilities amid perceived threats from American and South Korean military activities.
