Sol. South Korea and America conducted joint drone attack exercises for the first time. South Korean Air Force gave this information on Friday. The exercise was conducted in response to North Korea’s latest launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). Let us tell you that Pyongyang has been opposing the Seoul-Washington joint military exercises. A live fire drill took place in South Korea with a South Korean RQ-4B Global Hawk surveillance drone and an American MQ-9 Reaper attack drone, Yonhap news agency reported.
It is a clear demonstration of the Allies’ military capabilities against North Korean threats. South Korea on Friday announced new sanctions on 11 North Korean individuals and four entities. The sanctions were imposed in response to North Korea’s latest launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) earlier this week. The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile on Thursday morning.
The country’s top leader monitored the event, the Korean Central News Agency reported. A Ministry of National Defense spokesperson confirmed the test. Kim Jong Un said that the DPRK (the official name of North Korea) will not change its policy of developing nuclear power. Kim said steps like the enemy’s “dangerous strengthening of its nuclear alliance” and military maneuvers highlight the need to strengthen nuclear power. Kim said that we should never allow any threat to come into the security zone of our state.
