"The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) leader Kim Jong-un and his teen daughter Kim Ju-ae took centre stage at a nighttime military parade in Pyongyang on Wednesday, following the week-long Ninth Congress of the ruling Workers' Party. Footage shows people wearing matching coats and troops marching in formation in camouflage and special warfare gear. A group of fighter jets flew past alongside fireworks and drone displays. According to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), approximately 14,000 troops participated in the parade. Kim’s teenage daughter again featured prominently, though no new official titles were announced amid speculation in South Korea over a potential succession role. She is currently director of the army's Strategic Rocket Force. Earlier, Kim told the congress there was "no reason why we cannot get along well" with the United States but also said the country's nuclear capabilities would be ramped up. On South Korea, he said he would "permanently exclude Seoul from the category of compatriots". "As long as South Korea cannot escape the geopolitical conditions of having a border with us, the only way to live safely is to give up everything related to us and leave us alone," he added."
