Defence Forces exercise resulted in hypothermia and frostbite for several soldiers, the truth was not told to the leadership

Last Monday, a winter camp of an anti-tank company based in Jõhvi took place, where a group of soldiers were ordered to cross a river. Several young men suffered frostbite and were handed over to medics. However, an inaccurate and incomplete version of what happened was presented to the leadership of the Defence Forces.
