South Korea: Drills With U.S. Expected To Emphasize N. Korean WMDs

South Korea and the United States have agreed to strengthen a military exercise involving the simulated removal of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), reports the Yonhap News Agency.

Participants in this year's Key Resolve exercises, scheduled for March, will practice finding and destroying North Korea's nuclear weapons and other WMDs, according to an unnamed military source.

The focus of the joint drills was narrowed after Pyongyang in November revealed its uranium-enrichment facility.

A group of specialists from the 20th Support Command in Maryland will take part in the exercise, said the source.
