Catherine Field: France Correspondent on the high-intensity military drills

France has launched its biggest military drill since the Cold War.  12,500 troops, 25 ships, and 140 aircrafts have been mobilised in the three-month Orion 26 exercise, which is intended to prepare for the growing threat from Russia.  The drill will ramp up in April, as it will be placed under NATO command and include NATO forces.   France Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking the reason it’s such high intensity is because there’s never been a confluence of threats at this level before, according to the French military.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
