SEOUL (Reuters): North Korea staged a widely anticipated nighttime military parade on Monday (April 25), a South Korean military source said, marking the anniversary of its army's founding with a display expected to include the nuclear-armed country's latest weapons.

Thousands of troops have been practising for weeks, commercial satellite imagery showed, and the parade comes after North Korea resumed testing of its intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) last month for the first time since 2017.
