S. Korea stages largest military display for a decade

SEOUL: South Korea staged its largest military display for a decade on Tuesday, as President Park Geun-Hye warned of the “very grave” threat posed by North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.

Some 11,000 troops and 120 aircraft took part in the event at an air base south of Seoul, which showed off the military’s most advanced weaponry, including a cruise missile capable of surgical strikes on the North Korean leadership.
