Os armies of South Korea and the United States began on Monday professional paper writer (13) their annual maneuvers simulated Key Resolve combat, at a time of special tension in the peninsula after the last armaments tests of the North and the beginning of the installation of the shield THAAD .
The exercise, which coordinates South Korean ground maneuvers and artillery practices through a computer simulation, will be held until March 24, a South Korean Defense Ministry spokesman said.
South Korean air forces are carrying out a combat exercise to prepare responses to possible "provocations" of Pyongyang that will last until March 17 and which includes 50 aircraft, including the F-15 and FA-50 fighters.
As BBC has been customary in recent years, Key Resolve coincides with South Korea's joint Foal Eagle maneuvers, which began on March 1 and will last until the end of April.
Foal Eagle drills - involving South Korean and American infantry, naval and air forces - this year are the highest so far, after the North Korean regime held a record number of weapons tests in 2016.
Pyongyang, which considers all these maneuvers as a test to invade its territory, launched on March 6 four medium-range ballistic missiles that fell in Japanese waters, redoubling regional tension.
Add to that the installation, which began last week on South Korean soil of the THAAD, a system to knock down North Korean projectiles that threaten to fall on the southern neighbor and which, in addition to arousing the rejection of the regime of Kim Jong has also provoked strong criticism from China.
Beijing believes that THAAD radars can interfere with their defense systems and, in reprisal, are conducting a covert trade boycott against South Korean interests.
In the climate of tension and uncertainty the political crisis in South Korea must be added because of the "Rasputina" case, which led to the annulment of President Park Geun-hye, and the assassination in Malaysia of the brother of the North Korean leader, which Seoul openly accuses Pyongyang, which denies any participation.
