From next week NATO is set to launch military drills which will involve practising the use of Europe's nukes. The drill practice is set to start on Monday, October 17.
It is part of an annual nuclear exercise called Steadfast Noon, which is due to end on October 30. Up to 60 aircrafts will train flights above Belgium, the North Sea and Britain
It has been revealed that the aircrafts involved will include high-tech fighter jets and U.S. B-52 long-range bombers. Despite recent tensions, the routine exercise is not "linked to current world events", according to NATO, the Daily Star reports.
