Russia is going to try-missed missiles in the sea outside central Norway, while the NATO exercise:
Russia to conduct naval missile drills in the same area Trident Juncture is ongoing
“Russia plans to carry out a military exercise right
outside Norwegian territorial waters. The exercise will
involve missile shooting – and is scheduled in the midst
of the ongoing Nato exercise Trident Juncture.”
The Russian exercise will take place in the sea just
outside the Møre Coast, a short distance from the Norwegian
cities Kristiansund, Molde and Ålesund, and in an area
with several Norwegian offshore installations.
The Norwegian Armed Forces Operational Headquarters (FOH)
confirms the information to the Norwegian paper
Klassekampen.
It was Avinor who received a message from Russian
authorities Friday. The message from the Russian Central
Air Traffic Authority states:
“This is to inform you that the Russian Navy is
planning a pilot shooting of missiles in the Norwegian
Sea, 1, 2 and 3 November 2018. Daily from 0700 to 1400”.
