A number of telephone lines have been cut at the headquarters of the Russian Strategic Missile Troops in Vlasikha near Moscow.
The disconnection was caused by a technical failure, a source in the headquarters was quoted by Interfax news agency as saying.
“The disconnection has not affected the administration of troops, as military communications systems are unaffected and we can use mobile phones for the time being,” the source added.
The agency failed to reach the press service of the troops for comment, evidently because of the lack of functioning phone lines.
| I will certainly sleep better knowing that the country with the second largest nuclear arsenal has trouble maintaining command and control communications with its strategic missile command centre.
