Description
100 kilometres (62 miles) from the Russian border in the icy forests of Estonia, the "Winter Camp" exercise is putting NATO troops to the test in extreme winter conditions. Long planned, this annual exercise brings together 1,300 British, French and Estonian soldiers in a particularly tense context in which Russia has ammassed more than 100,000 soldiers near the Ukrainian border in part to protest NATO presence on its borders.
