NORTH KOREA.- In the photo released on March 13 by the North Korean KCNA agency, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is seen as he watches his troops fire rockets and artillery shells. There is one thing in particular that differentiates North Korean leader Kim Jong-un from his officers: he is the only one who does not wear a coronavirus mask. Kim has overseen multiple military exercises in recent weeks, as Pyongyang is organizing its response to stem an outbreak of the new coronavirus that has spread from China to the rest of the world.

A tale of two Koreas in the age of coronavirus

Norio Tomine, Japan Airlines' (JAL) flight operations route planning director, points at a map of the Korean Peninsula showing a no-fly zone that would avoid an accident with North Korea's planned long-range rocket launch at JAL's pilot ready room at Haneda Airport in Tokyo April 11, 2012. Japanese airlines have made changes to flight routes in the east of the Philippines, where the North Korean missile's second-stage booster is expected to fall if the rocket is launched, following instructions from Philippine air authorities to close usual routes during North Korea's expected launch period, according to Tomine. The launch of the Unha-3 rocket, which North Korea says will merely put a weather satellite into space, has been condemned by its neighbours and the West as a long-range ballistic missile test.
