Reykjavik, Iceland (CNN)In a far-flung corner of Iceland’s main international airport, a once-raging strand of the Cold War is being rekindled — NATO’s hunting of Russian submarines.

“They’re letting us know that they’re out there,” Adm. James G. Foggo III, commander of US Naval Forces in Europe, said of Russia’s increased submarine presence in the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans.

“They’re operating in much greater numbers and in places they have not operated before.”
