South Korea and the United States held joint military exercises in response to the ICBM launched by North Korea on Saturday. The South Korean military says it has practiced with strategic bombers together with the ally.
Pyongyang held the missile test on Saturday as a warning and response to Seoul and Washington, which had announced important new exercises. The two want to prepare for a possible North Korean nuclear attack next week.
So many times
It is yet another time that military exercises and missile tests are taking place in the East Asian region, where the question is always who answers to whom. Both sides regularly accuse each other of escalating and shrinking the area.
Japan’s Fuji News Network also reported that Tokyo is likely to hold joint military exercises with the United States using warplanes on Sunday. North Korea’s ballistic missile landed in the waters of Japan’s exclusive economic zone on Saturday. According to the Japanese, that missile had sufficient range to reach the American mainland.
