Thousands took part in rallies in South Korea capital city of Seoul last August 10 to oppose the Ulchi Freedom Shield (UFS) 2024, scheduled to be held in the country from August 19 to August 29. These war games are annually launched by the US in the ROK, but this year’s exercise will include for the first time ROK’s response in the event of a nuclear attack.

They also called for the scrapping of the military alliance between the US, Japan and South Korea and the resignation of US puppet President Yoon Seok Yeol.
