DRILL

Over 20 aircraft from 7 NATO member states Thursday took part in a joint drill as part of the enhanced Vigilance Activities – eVA headed by NATO AIRCOM based in Germany.

According to the defence ministry, the goal of the exercise is to prove NATO’s capacity to plan, coordinate and execute a complex air space security mission in the event of any type of attack or threat on Allied territory. In response to Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, NATO significantly enhanced its defence and deterrence capability, including by means of strengthening its presence on its eastern flank.
