South Korea scrambled fighter jets after North Korean warplanes staged an apparent bombing drill on Thursday. Pyongyang also fired off two ballistic missiles, just an hour after condemning the repositioning of a U.S. aircraft carrier to the region, and a U.N. Security Council meeting held in New York. The rare bombing drill by North Korean fighter jets prompted the South to deploy 30 fighters in response. The warplanes swarmed the heavily fortified border amid rising tensions over a string of missile tests by Pyongyang.
