Tijdens oefening Arctic Guard oefent het Korps Mariniers in Noord-Noorwegen onder extreme arctische omstandigheden. ❄️🇳🇴 Mariniers trainen hier om te leren opereren in deze omgeving. Zo bereiden zij zich voor op het beschermen van het NAVO-gebied in het Hoge Noorden.
Tijdens #ColdResponse26 trainen 25.000 militairen uit 14 landen in het Hoge Noorden. Zo blijft de NAVO vertrouwd met het gebied en inzetbaar wanneer dat nodig is.
