SEOUL — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has ordered the 'mass production' of attack drones, state media reported on Friday, as concerns mount over his country's deepening military cooperation with Russia.Pyongyang first unveiled its attack drones in August, with experts saying the capability may be attributable to the East Asian country's budding alliance with Russia.
Russian tech?Experts said the drones — in images released by state media in August — looked similar to the Israeli-made 'Harop' drone, Russian-made 'Lancet-3' and Israeli 'Hero 30.'North Korea may have acquired these technologies from Russia, which, in turn likely, obtained them from Iran — with Tehran itself suspected of accessing them through hacking or theft from Israel.
