South Korean and U.S. troops have been conducting live-fire exercises this week to hone their ability to respond to potential “Hamas-style surprise artillery attacks” by North Korea, South Korea’s military said Friday.
The two forces regularly conduct live-fire and other training, but this week’s drills come after Hamas’ Oct. 7 assault on Israel raised security jitters in South Korea, which shares the world’s most heavily fortified border with rival North Korea.
Experts say the North’s forward-deployed long-range artillery guns can fire about 16,000 rounds per hour in the event of a conflict, posing a serious threat to Seoul, which is about 40-50 kilometers (25-30 miles) from the border.
South Korea has 69h work weeks but North Korea bad 😞
Work-life balance is certainly abysmal but SK doesn’t have prison labor camps or a starving populace
I just block the tankies when they’re this obvious. There is no need to try to reason with them.
They need to get banned when they try to leave lemmygrad or wherever they gather now
Isn’t 69h per week a Gulag? Lol
No? My wife and I both work around that in America in our respective careers of IT and public accounting. 70 hr weeks aren’t fun but if you balance it across 7 days it’s just 10 of your 16 waking hours, if you work remotely like my wife then you don’t even need to add the two hours commuting a day to it
That sounds pretty awful.
I work 35h weekly, it’s not legal to work more in my country.
Enjoy your freedom and democracy bro
For real, “its just 10 of your 16 waking hours”, fuck off with normalizing that shit.
