Norway's Military On Raised Alert Level To Protect Energy Links In Response To Ukraine War

DW: Norway raises army alert level in response to Ukraine war 

The Norwegian armed forces will do less training and more active operations, the country's prime minister said. Oslo is concerned about sabotage to its energy infrastructure. 

Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere said on Monday that his country's military would be put on a raised level of alert as part of increased security measures in response to the war in Ukraine. 

"This is the most severe security situation in several decades," Stoere told a press conference "

The increased alert level would be valid from Tuesday.
