Military to Conduct Integrated Air Defense Drill against N. Korea’s Drone Incursions

The South Korean military will conduct an integrated air defense exercise in Seoul and parts of Gyeonggi Province Wednesday afternoon against North Korea’s small drone incursions.

According to the Army, the two-hour training session that will be held from 2 p.m. led by the Capital Defense Command and the Capital Corps is aimed at enhancing the Army’s air power in response to infiltration by the enemy’s drones. They will also be practicing debris-collecting procedures after shooting down enemy drones.

The Army said the military’s drones will be used to take the position of enemy drones, as well as helicopters tasked with subduing them.

The Army warned the public that they may experience inconveniences due to the training session, before asking for their understanding and cooperation.
