North Korea appoints new defence minister Jang Jong-nam
North Korea has replaced its hard-line armed forces minister with a relatively unknown general, according to state-run news agency KCNA.
Little is known about Jang Jong-nam, who replaces General Kim Kyok-sik.
Officials in Seoul say his political stance is not known, but he appears to be younger than his predecessor.
