Coming Saturday the squad of ‘B-1’ bomber planes will be posted at Guam Islands. The purpose of deployment of these bomber planes will be to counter North Korea, US Air Force clarified. However China having objected over the deployment of THAAD in South Korea by US can possibly react over this as well.

The ‘B-1’ bombers will be replacing the presently stationed ‘B-52’ bombers at Guam islands and 300 US Air Force officers will be posted as well.
