South Korea and the US Begin Naval Drills

South Korea and the United States have begun two days of joint naval exercises off the east coast, despite strong objections from North Korea.

Officials said the exercise began when the USS Nimitzstrike group left the southern port of Busan early Monday. The U.S. Navy says the carrier's strike group includes guided missile destroyers and a guided missile cruiser.
