Zelensky also expressed hope for an invitation to the G20: There were signs that President Trump would invite us to the G20 summit and initiate steps to end the war.

North Korea claims cluster-bomb warhead can turn 12–13 hectares into ashes North Korea’s state media KCNA reported on Sunday that the Missile Administration conducted a combat-power test on October 31 of a cluster (scattering) warhead for tactical ballistic missiles. Officials said the Standard Type-2 warhead demonstrated the ability to devastate a target area of 12–13 hectares (roughly 30–32 acres) at maximum density. The test was overseen by Gen. Kim Jong-sik; leader Kim Jong Un was not reported present. Pyongyang stated that four variants of the warhead (standard and special-purpose) will be made available for frontline units to select according to mission needs by the end of 2026. Images released by KCNA showed a launch from a mobile launcher and multiple impacts on an island target. The claims have not been independently verified. This follows earlier 2026 tests of similar cluster warheads on short-range ballistic missiles and comes amid a series of recent North Korean weapons drills.
