The U.S. Army Europe said Monday that Saber Strike 18 exercise has commenced, and “brings full-scale battle simulations for the service members involved to enhance their real-world military occupations and deployment logistics strategies.

The war drill will take place in the Baltic states from June 03-15 as “a demonstration of the commitment and solidarity of the Alliance” at a time when Russia’s military is “increasingly threatening NATO members.”
