A unit from South Korea’s Missile Strategic Command fired a Hyunmoo-II missile from the Anheung testing site in Taean County on Thursday, simulating a precision strike on an enemy ballistic missile launch site.

According to a statement from the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) on Friday, the military conducted a surface-to-surface missile live-fire exercise in the Yellow Sea. The Hyunmoo-II missile, launched from the Anheung site, traveled approximately 200 kilometers (124 miles) before successfully hitting a maritime target to the south.

This exercise simulated a scenario involving enemy ballistic missile provocations, focusing on procedures to strike hostile launch sites accurately using Hyunmoo surface-to-surface missiles. The JCS emphasized that this live-fire drill demonstrated the military’s firm resolve to respond decisively to any North Korean provocation and its capability to target enemy launch sites precisely.

Military officials stressed that under the strong U.S.-ROK combined defense line, they closely monitor North Korea’s various military activities. They maintain the capability and readiness to respond potently to any provocations. North Korea has recently conducted a series of missile tests, including the launch of a new Hwasong-19 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) on October 31, followed by multiple short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs) from what is believed to be large-caliber multi-rocket launchers (KN-25) on Tuesday.
