The US state of Georgia said on Thursday (Oct 31) that there was "targeted disinformation" circulating online about the November 5 presidential election in the country that was likely a result of "foreign interference attempting to sow discord and chaos." In a statement, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office said, "Earlier today, our office became aware of a video purporting to show a Haitian immigrant with multiple Georgia IDs claiming to have voted multiple times." Georgia alleges Russian interference Raffensperger's office said this was an example of targeted disinformation that the US has seen in this and other elections. "We are working to combat this and identify the origin of it with our state and federal partners. CISA [Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency] is currently investigating," the statement added. Also read | Georgia US Presidential Election 2024: Voting, Result info, Candidates and all you need to know The office further pointed out that the disinformation was likely a production of Russian troll farms.

'Election in Georgia is secure' The remarks from Raffensperger's office came a day after Georgia officials said that the election process in the swing state was secure, dismissing “crazy” online conspiracy theories.

North Korea test-launched a new ballistic missile&nbsp;on Thursday (Oct 31), flexing its military muscle.&nbsp;

The country's state-run television aired video footage of the test of a huge new solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile dubbed Hwasong-19.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) lauded it as "the world's strongest strategic missile."

The missile flew higher than any previous North Korean missile, according to the North, as well as militaries in South Korea and Japan, which tracked its flight deep into space before it splashed down in the ocean between Japan and Russia.

In the video, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and his daughter were seen watching the missile launch.

While questions remain over North Korea's ability to guide such a missile and protect a nuclear warhead as it re-enters the atmosphere, the Hwasong-19, like North Korea's other latest ICBMs, demonstrated the range to strike nearly anywhere in the United States.

"The new-type ICBM proved before the world the hegemonic position we have secured in the development and manufacture of nuclear delivery," KCNA quoted Kim as saying,

<h2>A 'perfected weapon system'</h2>

Developing advanced solid-fuel missiles, which are quicker to launch and harder to detect and destroy, has long been a goal for Kim.

The test proved that North Korea's "development and manufacture of nuclear delivery means... is absolutely irreversible", according to KCNA.

The missile is now a "perfected weapon system", the agency said, with Kim describing the launch as an "appropriate military action" to send a message to the country's rivals.&nbsp;

North Korea "would never change its line of bolstering up its nuclear forces," it said.

North Korea claims it launched 'world's strongest strategic missile'

At least 12 people were killed Friday after part of an outdoor roof collapsed at a train station in the Serbian city of Novi Sad, the interior minister said.&nbsp;

"The current number of bodies recovered is 12," Ivica Dacic told public broadcaster Radio Television of Serbia, revising upwards an earlier toll of eight dead and warning of other likely fatalities.

"This number will not be final," the minister added.

The head of the city's Vojvodina Clinic, Vesna Turkulov, earlier told reporters that three people who had been pulled from the rubble were in a serious condition, two of whom were undergoing&nbsp;operations.

"The injuries are very severe," she said.&nbsp;

Earlier, the interior minister said rescuers were working to free multiple people trapped beneath the wreckage of the roof.&nbsp;

Cranes and excavators worked alongside emergency responders digging through the rubble to search for the survivors, according to an AFP photographer at the scene.

"The operation is still ongoing and extremely challenging. Over 80 rescuers are involved, with the assistance of heavy machinery," Dacic said Friday afternoon.

The Serbian government said an official day of mourning would be held on Saturday, according to a statement published by the country's state broadcaster.

The Blood Transfusion Institute in Novi Sad also called on residents to donate blood following the accident.

Serving Serbia's second-largest city, the station reopened in July after three years of renovation work. Construction was still ongoing in parts of the station.&nbsp;

Serbia's Prime Minister Milos Vucevic vowed that authorities would investigate the cause of the accident.&nbsp;

"We will insist on finding those responsible, those who should have ensured the structure's safety. My condolences to the families of the deceased," said the premier. &nbsp;

"This is a black Friday for us, for all of Serbia, for Novi Sad," he added.

Serbia Railways said in a statement that the collapsed roof had not been part of the renovations completed at the station.&nbsp;

"Serbia Railways regrets the accident that occurred, and the causes and any new details from the investigation will be promptly announced," the company wrote in a social media post.&nbsp;

A high-speed rail connection between Novi Sad and the capital Belgrade opened in March 2022. &nbsp;
