00:00North Korea's state media says the country carried out military tests this week, including a ballistic missile fitted with a
00:07cluster bomb warhead.
00:09KCNA reports the new weapon could wipe out an area roughly the size of 10 football fields.
00:14Cluster bombs work by scattering thousands of smaller explosives over a large area, and they're widely criticized for the risk
00:21they pose to civilians.
00:22State media also said North Korea tested what it described as special assets, including an electromagnetic weapon system and carbon
00:30fiber bombs.
00:31Earlier in the week, South Korea's military said it had detected ballistic missile launches from the north.
