Seoul reports North Korea's fourth weapons launch in a month, including multiple missiles, a notable rise in activity. Analysts say Pyongyang is likely improving its ability to coordinate long-range missile, artillery and drone strikes, drawing on lessons from the Ukraine war. Pyongyang denies US claims it was behind a Binance hack that stole over $6 billion in crypto assets. In Indonesia, the president dismissed an aide accused of wiretapping while troops were deployed in Jakarta. Earlier unverified claims about ICBM MIRV development and a disputed object found in Papua New Guinea remain unconfirmed.
