A nuclear-powered American submarine has docked at a civilian port in
northern Norway, sparking concerns among protesters, who say the deployment
would turn the city into a bomb target in the event of a war.
The USS New Mexico submarine arrived in Tønsnes municipal harbor, in Tromsø city, on Monday.
The Norwegian government imposed a no-fly zone over the port, strictly guarding access to the harbor area under tight security.
