South Korea, US stage joint military drill

South Korean and US forces have conducted a fresh military exercise amid rising tensions on the troubled Korean Peninsula.

South Korean officials said on Thursday the combined forces took part in a joint river-crossing drill in South Korea’s Yeoncheon County near the North Korean border.
The fresh military drill featured the construction of a temporary bridge to transport military vehicles, such as tanks, across a river.
The developments come as Washington and Seoul are commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of their alliance.
But North Korea says joint military drills held by US and North Korea are a “hostile act.”
North Korea has threatened to launch an immediate retaliatory strike if the US and South Korea violate a disputed maritime border during their joint war games.
South Korea has already staged a series of military exercises separately or jointly with the United States since North Korea launched a long-range rocket in December 2012.
