Seoul - Arab Today

The Rodong Sinmun newspaper, said in a commentary that "new types of strategic weapons will soar" if Seoul and Washington continue their annual war drills, which the North claims to be a preparation for a war against it. "The (planned) test-firing of our new strategic weapons is a given right of a sovereign state to enhance its self-defense capabilities. It is natural and necessary to protect the national security and interests from the US. nuclear threats," the paper said.
On Feb. 12. Pyongyang test-fired a new intermediate ballistic missile powered by a solid-fuel engine, which is more powerful and harder to detect than the liquid-fueled rockets.
South Korean and U.S. troops on Wednesday kicked off the two-month Foal Eagle exercise involving ground, air and naval forces. The allies plan to start the Key Resolve computer-simulated command post exercise on March 13 for a two-week run.
