THAAD missile News
Twelve days. That’s all it took for one of the world’s most advanced missile defence systems to feel the weight of war. Somewhere over Israel, in the dark sky lit up by alarms and streaks of fire, America’s THAAD batteries stood guard.
The United States said it shot down a medium-range target ballistic missile in its latest test of the country`s THAAD missile defense program, which is designed to protect the country against potential threats from countries such as North Korea and Iran.
North Korea`s military said on Monday it will make a "physical response" to moves by the United States and South Korea to deploy the advanced THAAD missile defence system on the Korean peninsula.
China's foreign ministry strongly opposed the United States' deployment of the THAAD missile defence system to South Korea.
