Excerpt -
SEOUL, April 8 (Yonhap) -- North Korea is preparing for a mass military parade to showcase its weaponry, possibly including its long-range Taepodong-2 missile, a move expected to heighten tension in the region, a South Korean source said Sunday. South Korean intelligence authorities have detected the North covering missiles, army trucks and other military hardware with camouflage blankets, which are to be used in a military parade to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of its Korean People's Armed Forces, the source said, on condition of anonymity. The anniversary falls on April 25.
"We are focusing on whether the Taepodong-2 missile will be included in the parade," the source said.

I’m relieved that I’m not the only person on FR who immediately envisions what a cluster bomb (or 12) would do to a military parade like that. Or a Hamas protest.
