NATO conducts annual nuclear defense drill in Western Europe - UPI.com
UPI reports: "NATO countries on Monday kicked off its annual nuclear drill at two
bases in Western Europe -- part of a three-week event to test defenses.
Military leaders conducted the nuclear defense drill, called 'Steadfast
Noon,' at Kleine Brogel in Belgium and Buchel in Germany -- two bases
where the U.S. military stores nuclear weapons.
Details of the exercise were not made public but NATO officials
privately said it was the military alliance's primary nuclear deterrent
drill. [...] Russia conducted similar military exercises last month on the western borders of Russia and Belarus, which included a nuclear deterrent drill and the firing of a ballistic missile."
