MINSK, 20 March (BelTA) – The Belarusian army and the Polish one will carry out a joint exercise of air force and air defense units on 25 March to practice sharing air traffic information as part of preparations for working together to ensure security in the airspace during an ice hockey world championship in 2021 and the European Games in 2023, representatives of the Belarusian Defense Ministry told BelTA.
The exercise will allow Belarusian and Polish army units to practice working together in response to incidents in the airspace. The exercise will make officers of command stations more prepared for working together in response to acts of terrorism in the air.
The exercise was planned by Belarus and Poland in November 2019 and added to the international military cooperation plan for 2020.
