300 soldiers participate in the exercise that takes place inside the city during the week, writes the Swedish Armed Forces in a press release.

– It is very important for all Lifeguard soldiers to be able to practice inside Stockholm and familiarize themselves with the urban environment, which in the worst case, is where they have to solve tasks in the event of an armed conflict, says exercise leader Magnus Gerhardsson.
