The Pentagon canceled a major U.S. Army exercise that was slated to begin later this month in the country of Georgia, amid accusations that Tbilisi waged an anti-American misinformation campaign.

U.S. Army Europe and Africa’s two-week Noble Partner drill was scheduled to kick off July 25. The exercise, which in previous years involved several thousand troops from numerous countries, was held at a former Soviet air base on the outskirts of Tbilisi, the capital.
