South Korea says U.S. cancels joint marine drill over Iran war

The United States has canceled a large joint amphibious landing exercise with South Korean forces that was originally scheduled for September. South Korea's military announced on Monday that the U.S. Marine Corps formally notified them of the cancellation in June.

The decision to call off the drills was driven by resource constraints stemming from the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war in Iran, according to Seoul's military announcement.
