- Kim Jong Un's daughter, Kim Ju Ae, was seen driving a battle tank during a large-scale military drill overseen by her father.
- Believed to be around 13 years old, she has been increasingly accompanying her father to public and military gatherings, including a major missile test last week.
- Photos released by state news agency KCNA showed her seated in the tank's driver's hatch as her father supervised the drill of a new type of tank.
- Her frequent high-profile appearances since late 2022 have fuelled speculation that she is being groomed as her father's successor.
- North Korean state media refers to her as Mr Kim's “respected” or “most beloved” child, though her name and age are not officially confirmed.
