U.S. and South Korean military forces fired the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) and Hyunmoo IIA ballistic missiles during a joint missile exercise on Jul. 5.

The joint firing along South Korea’s east coast was in response to North Korea’s intercontinental ballistic missile launch, Pentagon spokesman Navy Capt. Jeff Davis told reporters.
