North Korea has released photographs showing leader Kim Jong Un inspecting footwear and women's clothing at an exhibition, following unverified social media claims that he had died after suffering a severe brain haemorrhage, the New York Post reported. The photographs, published by North Korean state media on Monday, show Kim examining children's shoes, gesturing towards officials and looking at women's coats displayed at a garment and footwear exhibition. North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) also reported that Kim toured the exhibition on Monday. However, the photographs have not been independently authenticated, and it remains unclear when they were taken. North Korean authorities have not explicitly addressed the rumours about Kim's alleged death.
