US preparing to 'evacuate 230,000 Americans from South Korea'
|The US military sources revealed that as a part of a drill named Courageous Channel due to be held in June, the US President Trump has demanded the evacuation of US citizens from South Korea, a UK tabloid reports.
In response to this, South Korean joint chief of staff said that the country hasn't seen any North Korean provocation so far.
Key Points:
The US prepares for the safe exit of around 230,000 Americans in the case of conflict.
If the Pyongyang was to attack, tens of thousands of American civilians, including military dependents residing in and around the capital city of Seoul, could very well be caught in the crossfire.
