North Korea fired at least one unidentified projectile eastward on Saturday, according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The launch occurred as South Korea and the United States conducted their key springtime military exercise. Pyongyang has long criticized the allies' drills as preparations for an invasion.
Defense Minister Ahn Gyu-back will visit the United States next week to meet U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The allies plan to discuss wartime operational control transfer and other pending security issues.

The South Korean and U.S. militaries have postponed announcing a date for their major springtime Freedom Shield exercise due to differences over the scale of on-field drills. The U.S. expressed reluctance to South Korea's proposal to minimize field training, citing already arrived troops and equipment. The two sides plan to announce the exercise later this month or early March.
Le ministre de la Défense Ahn Gyu-back et le secrétaire à la Défense américain Pete Hegseth doivent visiter la Zone démilitarisée (DMZ) qui sépare les deux Corées lundi. La visite a lieu un jour avant leurs discussions de sécurité annuelles et fait partie du voyage de Hegseth en Corée du Sud. Elle marque la première visite conjointe des chefs de la défense des alliés depuis octobre 2017.
