Q: Havana, Cuba (CNN) Hurricane Irma, which devastated much of the Caribbean in September, has claimed a new victim: Raul Castro's succession plans. On Thursday, Cuban officials said the island was still dealing with the aftermath of the killer storm and needed to postpone long-held plans for Castro, 86, to retire on February 24, 2018, when his second five-year term ends. It was to have been the first time that Cuba was ruled by a leader not named Castro since the 1959 revolution that swept Raul Castro's older brother Fidel Castro to power. The wrath of Irma, however, delayed the Communist-run island's single party elections process, which appoints the Cuban National Assembly that in turn selects Cuba's president.Cuba, dealing with Hurricane Irma aftermath, says Castro will retire in April instead of FebruaryCastro has indicated first Vice President Miguel-Diaz Canel has his blessing to be the next president 
 Question:"My second and last term will have concluded," _ told Cuban lawmakers on Thursday, "and Cuba will have a new president."

Q: (CNN) -- North Korea stirred up fresh unease in Northeast Asia early Thursday, threatening attacks by a "smaller, lighter and diversified" nuclear force and warning, "The moment of explosion is approaching fast." The new threat came after the North Koreans locked South Korean workers out of a joint factory complex and announced plans to restart a nuclear reactor it shut down five years ago. Meanwhile, the United States announced it was sending ballistic missile defenses to Guam, a Pacific territory that's home to U.S. naval and air bases. "The moment of explosion is approaching fast. No one can say a war will break out in Korea or not and whether it will break out today or tomorrow," North Korea's state news agency KCNA declared in its latest broadside. "The responsibility for this grave situation entirely rests with the U.S. administration and military warmongers keen to encroach upon the DPRK's sovereignty and bring down its dignified social system with brigandish logic."NEW: North Korea reportedly demands the withdrawal of South Korean workers from jointly run complexAnalyst says both sides need to cool the rhetoric"The moment of explosion is approaching fast," North Korea saysU.S. moves missile defense system to Guam
