'They started bombing us with drones': Russian attacks unnerve Zaporizhzhia Share'They started bombing us with drones': Russian attacks unnerve Zaporizhzhia on social media There are only eight people left in Volodymyr's village. That was the last count he remembers before deciding to leave. "We were in the cellar when they started bombing us with drones," he said, nervously rubbing his red, blistered hands together. "As you can see, I was completely burned." The villages south of Zaporizhzhia have been coming under escalating Russian attacks. On November 2, in one of this year's deadliest attacks in Ukraine, nine Russian glide bombs struck the town of Komyshuvakha, killing at least 50 people.

North Korea tests cluster bomb warheads in latest'major' weapons test A combination picture shows what North Korea said was a test to evaluate the effectiveness of a cluster-bomb warhead in this image released Sunday. North Korea said Sunday that it had tested cluster-bomb warheads for its tactical ballistic missiles a day earlier, the latest in a spate of weapons tests by the nuclear-armed country. Defense officials said the test "confirmed that the Standard Type 2 cluster-bomb warhead is capable of turning into ashes a target area of 12 to 13 hectares with its highest-density power," the North's official Korean Central News Agency said in a report. Images accompanying the report -- which framed the event as a "major" weapons test -- showed Hwasong-11D short-range ballistic missiles being fired, with the cluster warheads slamming into an island target. The North's Missile Administration called the test "a part of regular scientific research activities aimed at boosting the power of combat systems."

Is the war entering a new phase? Ukraine's military says Russian casualties reached 49,040 in October - a new monthly record. The General Staff's estimate of dead and incapacitated Russian troops, as of October 28, comes close to fulfilling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's goal set in January of at least 50,000 enemy casualties a month by the end of 2026. The previous monthly high of 46,230 was set in September, with both records marking a sharp increase in reported Russian dead and wounded since the summer. Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces commander Robert Brovdi called it a "massive industrial slaughter".

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and other officials observe the Hyunmoo-5 missile at an undisclosed test site in South Korea on Thursday. Seoul - South Korea test-fired its first homegrown hypersonic weapon on Thursday, the presidential office said, days after Pyongyang announced the AI-assisted launch of an intermediate-range hypersonic missile. South Korean President Lee Jae Myung "observed the first test launch of a hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) -- currently under research and development using domestic technology," the presidential Blue House said in a statement. Hypersonic glide vehicles are sent into the upper atmosphere via rocket boosters or on ballistic missiles, then glide towards their target at five times the speed of sound or greater. Hailing a "key strategic asset capable of changing the course of the battlefield," the South Korean statement said that the missiles' "unpredictable flight trajectories and overwhelming speed enable them to strike key strategic targets." The test was aimed at verifying "the performance of ultra-high-temperature heat-resistant materials -- a core technology for glide vehicles -- as well as guidance and control capabilities and the ability to fly irregularly at low altitudes under hypersonic flight conditions," it added.
