Security forces from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)
started an exercise on Tuesday in Armenia which focused on ensuring
the security of nuclear power plants.
The drill, code-named Atom Anti-Terror 2006, aimed "to reveal and
destroy sabotage groups that infiltrated the territory of Armenia and
seized a nuclear power plant in the city of Metsamor," Boris Mylnikov,
chief of the CIS Antiterrorist Center, was quoted as saying by the
Itar-Tass news agency.
The exercise is being conducted at the Armyanskaya nuclear power
plant and runs through Friday.
Forces from the Armenian National Security Service and Russian Federal
Security Service's special task center will act as "terrorists"
secretly moving in Armenia with plans to seize the Armyanskaya plant,
Mylnikov said.
When the "terrorists" were spotted, an Armenian motorized infantry
battalion and special forces would join hands to free the "seized"
nuclear power plant, he said.
