Preparing For The Worst: Mass Evacuation Training In Cyprus

British forces in Cyprus have been taking part in a large multi-national humanitarian exercise.
 
Exercise Argonaut is designed to test how nations can deal with a large-scale evacuation of citizens from a foreign country - as happened in Beirut in 2006.
 
Argonaut, an annual exercise, gives a host of nations the chance to practice and learn their response to a humanitarian crisis.
