Armenian, Russian forces conduct joint anti-terror exercise
Armenian and Russian special forces conducted a joint exercise
Thursday simulating a response to terrorists who seized a nuclear
power plant.
The exercise's scenario envisaged a group of terrorists taking
hostages and locking themselves up in the Armenian nuclear power
plant's control room. A joint force made up of Russian and Armenian
special forces quickly disarmed the terrorists and freed hostages.
The exercise was held under the auspices of the Anti-Terror Center of
the Commonwealth of Independent States, a loose alliance of the
former Soviet nations. It was attended by observers from the United
States, Britain, France, Germany and other nations.
