Nuclear catastrophe' drill off west Sweden.

Danish authorities are holding a staged nuclear catastrophe off the west coast of Sweden. Meanwhile southern Swedish residents heading over the Öresund bridge to Copenhagen should beware of a simulated terror exercise there.

Police and other emergency services are set to swing into action and respond to a fake planned nuclear catastrophe in the Kattegat waters between Denmark and Sweden this week. The ideas is that authorities will learn from the simulation in order to help keep Nordic residents safe should anything similar happen in real life.
 
According to a press release from the East Jutland Police, “a collision between an nuclear-powered ship and a large cargo vessel will be the sounding gun for a chain of events that will create problems for all of society”. 
 
More than 500 participants from 30 different public authorities and organizations will take part in the crisis training exercise, dubbed KRISØV, which is the largest of its kind in Denmark's history.
 
Only the Danish National Police (Rigspolitiet) and the Danish Emergency Management Agency (Beredskabsstyrelsen) know the full details of the planned "catastrophe", which will take place on Wednesday and Thursday. 

Meanwhile people living in Malmö in southern Sweden have been warned to watch out for scenes set to resemble a Hollywood blockbuster movie if they travel over the Öresund bridge to neighbouring Copenhagen.
 
Police in the Danish capital have announced that officers will be engaged in a full-scale operation to train their tactical and operational response to terror in the city and test new technologies.
