**U.S., South Korea and Japan to Conduct Joint “Freedom Edge” Military Exercise**
*Seoul, Aug. 30, 2026* — The United States, the Republic of Korea (ROK), and Japan will hold their annual “Freedom Edge” exercise next month, the ROK Joint Chiefs of Staff announced on Friday. The three‑nation, multi‑domain drill is scheduled for 7–11 September and will take place in international waters southeast of Jeju Island.
The exercise is intended to enhance coordination among the allies and to address the nuclear and missile capabilities of North Korea, according to the statement released by the ROK military. “Freedom Edge” is a recurring joint training event that involves air, sea, and cyber components, allowing the participating forces to practice integrated operations across multiple domains.
No further details on the specific units or equipment to be employed have been disclosed. The announcement comes amid ongoing concerns in the region over Pyongyang’s continued development of ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.
