What the reports sayEach newsroom’s own summary of its report, from its feed

The question of who will become North Korea's next leader is crucial because that person will face a huge challenge - governing an impoverished, nuclear-armed nation whose 26 million people have little political freedom.
Little is known about her except that she's reportedly about 13 and named Kim Ju Ae, but Korea's spy agency says she's likely her father's heir.

Quoted from the newsrooms’ own feeds, with their names and links. Rational Times has not independently confirmed the details.
