Herald Scotland reports [heraldscotland.com] that the Ministry of Defence has inadvertently e-mailed a NATO document to members of the public. The file, marked "NATO RESTRICTED [clearancejobsblog.com]," contains details about the Joint Warrior 161 and Griffin Strike 16 military exercises* now in progress around the UK. It was sent to "fishing and ferry operators" who were meant to receive a different document regarding the effect of the exercises on shipping.
