VS and South Korea respond with shooting exercise

washington - In response to the latest North Korea rocket test, the United States and South Korea jointly conducted a military exercise on the east coast of the peninsula. The US Army announced Friday that missiles in South Korea's territorial waters have been fired as part of the exercise.

The North Korea trial with probably an intercontinental ballistic projectile (ICBM) has already been strongly condemned by other countries. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe called on the international community to push pressure on the Stalinist regime. UN Secretary-General António Guterres, among others, approved the action of North Korea and South Korean President Moon Jae-in pleaded for expansion of the THAAD anti-missile system in his country.

The rocket that fired North Korea fell into waters that calculate Japan into its own economic zone.
