Warships from NATO countries have arrived in Halifax, Canada, and will on Monday begin a round of two-week long joint military exercises aimed at strengthening anti-submarine defenses.
The exercises will include 11 ships, three submarines and 26 aircraft from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, France and Germany, Canadian media reported.
“It’s an opportunity for us to bring like-minded NATO countries together to hone a very difficult skill set which is not only anti-submarine warfare but also working in the surface domain, the air domain and also doing a lot of work in boarding operations,” Canadian navy Commodore Craig Baines said in a statement.
