North Korea Tests Cluster Munitions

Pyongyang has intensified its weapons development program with the test-launch of short-range ballistic missiles equipped with cluster munitions.

The tests, observed by Kim Jong Un and his daughter, are seen by analysts as an effort to overwhelm South Korean and U.S. defensive batteries.

The United Nations has issued warnings regarding North Korea's 'very serious' nuclear advances following these latest maneuvers.

Regional tensions remain high as Seoul monitors for further provocations from the North's eastern coast.
