@explain_hub_01: In 2015, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un reportedly ordered the execution of his defense minister, Hyon Yong-chol, after he was accused of dozing off during a military assembly honoring Kim’s late father, Kim Jong-il. South Korean intelligence said the punishment was carried out with an anti-aircraft gun in front of hundreds of officials as a warning. The episode highlights the regime’s extreme demand for absolute loyalty and its pattern of internal purges — more than 15 high-ranking officials were allegedly executed that year. #NorthKorea #KimJongUn #HyonYongChol #PoliticalPurge #WorldNews
