Military exercises in Jēkabpils district this weekend

From November 23 to 24, military training of the National Guardsmen of the 56th Combat Support Battalion of the 3rd Latgale Brigade of the National Guard will take place in Jēkabpils district, the Latvian National Armed Forces (NBS) has confirmed.

"The aim of the training is to maintain and improve the combat skills and skills of the National Guardsmen for the protection of the areas of responsibility of the National Guard units," said the NBS.

Training will be carried out both in daylight and in the dark, in areas agreed in advance, so military equipment, soldiers and national guards with small arms might be spotted on the move in the territory of Jēkabpils region.

Training ammunition and combat simulators will be used for training tasks, which make noise but do not pose any physical danger. The training places will be cleaned after the training if necessary, the NBS promises.
