North Korea is marking a key state anniversary Friday with calls for stronger loyalty to leader Kim Jong Un, but there was no word on an expected military parade to display new weapons amid heightened animosities with the United States.

The 110th birth anniversary of Kim's late grandfather and state founder, Kim Il Sung, comes after North Korea conducted a spate of weapons tests in recent months, including its first full-range intercontinental ballistic missile launch since 2017. Experts say North Korea aims to expand its weapons arsenal and ramp up pressure on the United States amid long-stalled nuclear diplomacy.

Kim Il Sung's birthday is the most important national holiday in North Korea, where the Kim family has ruled under a strong personality cult since the nation's founding in 1948. Kim Jong Un is the third generation of his family to rule North Korea after his father died in late 2011. NK News, a North Korea-focused news outlet, said its sources in Pyongyang reported hearing jets and helicopters flying low over the city center shortly after midnight Thursday -- a possible indication that a nighttime military parade was taking place. South Korea's Defense Ministry said it had no immediate information to share with the media on a possible military parade in North Korea.

Credit. NK has come a long way in the last 110 years. From the Stone Age to the Dark Ages. NK is now on par with Afghanistan which has gone from the edge of enlightenment to the Dark Ages.
