NATO today began military drills practising the use of Europe’s nuclear bombs after Vladimir Putin threatened to use any means necessary to defend Russian territory in the face of setbacks in Ukraine.
US B-52 long-range bombers and up to 60 aircraft will take part in training flights over Belgium, the UK and the North Sea today as part of NATO’s annual nuclear exercise ‘Steadfast Noon’.
The nuclear drills – which do not involve live bombs – come after Vladimir Putin said that a direct clash between NATO and Russian troops would lead to ‘global catastrophe’.
The bulk of the war games will be held at least 625 miles from Russia‘s borders.
