The 'attack and defend' training serial featured French and British soldiers training as the defence, with the Estonian Scouts Battalion and the Estonian Defence League posing as the attacking force.
The scenario provided an opportunity for all elements of the eFP Battlegroup to train together and learn and adapt tactics and skills from one another.
 
The largest winter training Exercise, WINTER CAMP, for the eFP Estonia Battlegroup is now complete for 2022.
