SEOUL - The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) conducted a strategic cruise missile launching drill Thursday, a move aimed at examining the rapid response posture of its strategic cruise missile units, the official Korean Central News Agency reported Friday.
A strategic cruise missile unit of the Korean People's Army in the eastern region fired four "Hwasal-2" strategic cruise missiles towards eastern waters at dawn, which traveled on a flight trajectory before hitting target as designed, the report said.
The launching drill "successfully achieved its object", it said.
The Republic of Korea (ROK) and the United States on Wednesday held a combined military exercise at the Pentagon, involving simulations including using a nuclear weapon.
