Airborne troops, marines move to training grounds in urgent drills


Marines of Russia's Baltic and Northern fleets boarded large landing ships, the Defence Ministry press service told Itar-Tass.

At the same time, groups of the Pskov airborne troops were moving to an airfield to board aircraft to go to planned areas. The landing grounds will be known only after the aircraft takes off and heads for the areas, the press service added.

On February 26, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the Defence Ministry to conduct an urgent complex drill to test the combat readiness of forces of the western and central military districts.
