SOUTH Korea has ordered an urgent probe into US THAAD anti-missile launchers amid fears Seoul could be caught in middle of World War 3 between Donald Trump and North Korea.

President Moon Jae-in claims the US Defence Ministry failed to inform him that four more launchers for the controversial system had been brought into the country.

And he said it was “very shocking” to learn about the installation days after the fact.

Now his government will launch an investigation into the new launchers amid reports they could back off from the ongoing conflict.

The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system battery was initially deployed in March in the southeastern region of Seongju.

The missile defence system was installed with two of its maximum load of six launchers to counter a growing North Korean missile threat.

But Mr Moon has called for a more moderate approach to Pyongyang’s threat – and even called for a parliamentary review of the THAAD system in his recent election campaign.
