North Korea recently held one of the crazy flamboyant parades that are supposed to show their incredible military might in honor of the anniversary of the Korean War.
This time, however, they added a twist — truckloads of soldiers wearing packs that were adorned with the nuclear fallout symbol.
And then people lost their minds on the internet.

But a new report from NKNews details how the packs were likely filled with rags, and at worst contained Haz Mat suits, but in no way held a miniature nuclear weapons, which are very difficult to make and are not believed to be possessed by the Hermit Kingdom.
So put aside your fears, folks, of North Korean commandos running around like Dora the Explorer with packs full of nuclear weapons. It simply isn't true.
