North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency said Russian President Vladimir Putin will pay a state visit on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The drill comes as tensions are rising over the North's recent launches of trash-carrying balloons toward South Korea.
North Korea's recent launch of trash-carrying balloons drew a vow from South Korea of "unbearable" retaliation.
South Korea says it's fully suspending a 2018 tension-reducing military deal with North Korea in the wake of Pyongyang sending hundreds of trash-filled balloons across the border.
The balloon launches are among a recent series of provocations by North Korea.
South's Korea's military said about 260 North Korean balloons were found dropped in various parts of the country and were being recovered by military rapid response and explosive clearance teams.
North Korea had earlier notified Japan's coast guard about its plans to launch "a satellite rocket."
North Korea fired suspected short-range ballistic missiles off its east coast, South Korea's military said, a day after South Korea and the U.S. flew powerful fighter jets in a joint drill.
North Korea's latest launch to boost Kim Jong Un's image wasn't a missile, but a song and music video all about the "Friendly Father."
North Korea fired multiple short-range ballistic missiles toward its eastern waters, days after the end of the South Korean-U.S. military drills that the North views as an invasion rehearsal.
North Korean state media say leader Kim Jong Un test drove one of the country's new tanks and urged troops to be ready for war.
North Korea's Kim Jong Un apparently liked Vladimir Putin's limousine so much on a visit to Russia that Putin has given him one.
Pyongyang's latest tests come with tensions on the Korean Peninsula at their highest point in years as Kim Jong Un hastens the North's weapons development — and threats.
North Korea said it tested an underwater nuclear attack drone in response to joint naval exercises by the U.S., Seoul and Tokyo.
Pyongyang says the missile had solid-fuel, an intermediate range and a hypersonic warhead. Analysts say the North is seeking stronger, harder-to-detect weapons to hit remote U.S. targets in the region.
The firing exercises, which are in violation of the fragile 2018 inter-Korean military agreement, are expected to escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula.
Kim Jong Un ordered North Korea's military to "thoroughly annihilate" the U.S. and South Korea if his isolated nation is provoked, state media say.
South Korea and Japan say North Korea has test launched a missile likely among the most powerful, long-range weapons in its arsenal, the Hwasong-18 ICBM.
South Korea says 2 Chinese and 4 Russian warplanes entered its air defense zone for just less than 20 minutes, but "there was no invasion of airspace."
North Korea attempted to launch a surveillance satellite into orbit two other times this year without success.
North Korea has started transferring artillery to Russia as the U.S. sends a seized cache of Iranian ammunition to Ukraine.
Travis King, who ran across the border from South Korea into North Korea in July, was transferred back to U.S. custody in China, then flown to San Antonio.

Images on Russia and North Korean state media showed Kim Jong Un traveling to Russia by armored train — a method of travel that has been used by the reclusive Kim dynasty for decades.
U.S. and South Korean officials believe Kim will offer Vladimir Putin weapons and ammo for his war in Ukraine in exchange for food, energy and weapons technology.
