North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said on Thursday his country could 'completely destroy' South Korea if threatened and outlined five-year plans to expand nuclear and missile programs at a ruling Workers' Party congress. State media reported he called for underwater-launched ICBMs, tactical nuclear systems, AI-equipped drones and expanded artillery capabilities, saying recent advances 'permanently cemented' North Korea's nuclear status and urging the US to abandon 'hostile' policies.
