North Korea on Thursday said its tests this week involved various new weapons systems, including ballistic missiles armed with cluster-bomb warheads.

North Korea said the tests lasted three days starting on Monday and included demonstrations of anti-aircraft weapons, purported electromagnetic weapons systems and carbon-fiber bombs.
