North Korea in Photos: Kim Jong Un Oversees Military Parade

As geopolitical tensions rise on the Korean Peninsula amid an exchange of verbal threats of military actions between the U.S. and North Korea, the communist country celebrated its biggest national holiday in Pyongyang on Saturday to commemorate its late founder's 105th birthday. Rather than staging its sixth nuclear test, which had been expected by western officials, the North staged an elaborate military parade under the watch of dictator Kim Jong Un to show off new missiles and other traditional weapons.
