China and Russia have commenced their second computer-simulated anti-missile exercise in Beijing, scheduled to run until Saturday. According to the Chinese Ministry of National Defense, the bilateral drill implements previous agreements between leadership to enhance strategic cooperation against regional ballistic and cruise missile threats. Military officials noted the training focuses on combat preparation, command structures, and firing coordination without targeting third parties. Both countries maintain opposition to global missile defense architectures, emphasizing the need to safeguard bilateral security interests and strategic stability. The joint maneuvers occur amid heightened regional security tensions following North Korea's recent test of an intercontinental ballistic missile capable of long-range strikes.
