Hundreds of soldiers carry out military drill on Brittany beach

Hundreds of French soldiers carried out a high-intensity military drill called Polaris 25. It involves landing on the beaches of northwestern Morbihan region, with the amphibious helicopter carrier 'Dixmude' and numerous ground vehicles from the French army. The exercise is marking the first of its kind since 2018, and is designed to adapt lessons learned from historical events, specifically the D-Day landings, for modern warfare.
