North Korean school children play with imitation AK47s and throw mock grenades as they learn military skills to 'beat down any enemies' while protecting the Supreme Leader 

Pupils at Pyongyang Number Four Primary School in North Korea clambered over fences in an obstacle course as they carried imitation weapons over their shoulders (left and bottom right). The youngsters were taking part in dictator Kim Jong-un's Korean Children's Union Day this morning. Teachers said they were developing the skills to defend the secretive nation and to protect the Supreme Leader.
