A US B-1B strategic bomber will participate in the ongoing joint air exercises with South Korea on Saturday, a defense ministry official in Seoul told AFP.
"The B-1B (bomber) is scheduled to participate in the exercises in the afternoon," the official said, without elaborating.
Seoul and Washington extended their joint air exercises until Saturday in response to North Korea's recent missile launches.
The US-South Korean military exercises are among the largest ever, with the two sides deploying hundreds of fighter jets.
