SEOUL (Reuters) - A North Korean youth group has donated rocket launchers to the military in a show of "fervent patriotism", state media KCNA reported on Wednesday, as the isolated state confronts what it sees as growing foreign threats.

The donation of military equipment took place at a ceremony on Tuesday as the Korean Children's Union (KCU), a political youth group, celebrated its 77th anniversary.
