North Korea conducted a weapons demonstration on Thursday, showcasing a range of military hardware including suicide attack drones, cruise missiles, and a large multiple rocket launcher, according to state media. The event took place simultaneously with an exhibition on unmanned aerial technology, where North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was in attendance.
The day saw South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff detect approximately ten short-range ballistic missiles launched from the Wonsan area towards the East Sea. The exhibition featured various strategic and tactical multipurpose drones, suicide attack drones, and other combat systems. The weapons demonstration, on the other hand, involved tactical suicide attack drones, cruise missiles, and a 600-millimeter multiple rocket launcher, commonly referred to as the Sniper.
KCNA, North Korea's official news agency, reported that the air-to-ground missiles fired from the suicide attack drones and multipurpose drones, along with the cruise missiles, hit a designated island target with a 100 percent success rate.
