South Korea and the U.S. will begin an 11-day joint military exercise on 18 August, with half of the drills postponed to September due to extreme weather, a South Korean military spokesperson said.
The annual Ulchi Freedom Shield drill will include 40 training events, 20 of which have been rescheduled for September, according to Lee Sung-jun of South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Lee said the decision was based on weather-related risks and denied any political reasons for the change.
This year’s exercises will focus on enhancing joint responses to North Korea’s evolving nuclear threats and will incorporate lessons from conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
The scenario includes a simulated North Korean missile launch, but will not involve preparations for a potential nuclear test by Pyongyang.
