Residents of the Seongju municipality chant slogans during a rally in front of Seoul Station on July 21, 2016, to protest against the deployment of an advanced U.S. missile defense system, known as Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), in the town of Seongju, a county some 300 kilometers southeast of Seoul. The rally came on the heels of a July 13 decision by South Korea and the United States to deploy a THAAD battery in the town to counter North Korea's missile threats. (Yonhap) (END)
