North Korea conducted a drill with a simulated tactical nuclear strike on September 2 in response to joint military exercise by the US and South Korea, Pyongyang-run media reported on Sunday.On Saturday, South Korea's news agency reported that North Korea had fired several cruise missiles into the Yellow Sea. As many as two long-range strategic cruise missiles tipped with mock nuclear warheads were fired, with each of them flying some 1,500 kilometers (932 miles) for 7,672 and 7,681 seconds, respectively, and exploding afterward at an altitude of 150 meters above the "target island," the news agency also stated. Earlier in the week, the Joint Chiefs of Staff of South Korea said that North Korea had launched two ballistic missiles toward the Sea of Japan, which flew some 360 kilometers before falling into the sea. The General Staff of the Korean People's Army said later that it had carried out a tactical nuclear strike drill simulating nuclear strikes at the territory of South Korea in response to the US-South Korea drills. The US and South Korea held the annual exercise dubbed Ulchi Freedom Shield from August 21-31.

North Korea Conducts Drill Simulating Tactical Nuclear Attack: State Media
Pyongyang's move came in response to joint exercises between South Korea and the United States, as part of which the countries carried out an aviation exercise involving at least one B-1B strategic bomber.
North Korea conducted a drill with a simulated tactical nuclear strike on September 2 in response to joint military exercise by the US and South Korea, Pyongyang-run media reported on Sunday.
On Saturday, South Korea's news agency reported that North Korea had fired several cruise missiles into the Yellow Sea.
"A firing drill for simulated tactical nuclear attack was conducted at dawn of September 2 ... The missile sub-unit involved in the drill fired the long-range strategic cruise missiles toward the West Sea of Korea [in the Yellow Sea] from the mouth of the River Chongchon," the agency said, adding that the drill was held in response to "a joint guided missile firing and aerial bombing drill" held by the US and South Korea.
As many as two long-range strategic cruise missiles
tipped with mock nuclear warheads were fired, with each of them flying some 1,500 kilometers (932 miles) for 7,672 and 7,681 seconds, respectively, and exploding afterward at an altitude of 150 meters above the "target island," the news agency also stated.
