#NATO friendly fire in #Latvia: Italian troops shoot their own Four Italian soldiers were wounded, one seriously, during a NATO live-fire exercise at the Adazi base in Latvia on Friday night. According to Italy's Defence Ministry, a soldier on one Dardo infantry fighting vehicle opened fire on another Italian vehicle. Italian news agency ANSA reports that a burst from its 7.62mm machine gun hit the Dardo travelling directly ahead, apparently while its rear hatch was open.

Il Fatto Quotidiano: Fuoco amico durante un’esercitazione Nato in Lettonia: quattro militari italiani feriti. “Nessuno è in pericolo di vita” Quattro militari italiani sono rimasti feriti durante un’esercitazione a fuoco – cioè con l’impiego di munizioni reali – della Nato in Lettonia. L’incidente è avvenuto nel tardo pomeriggio nell’area di addestramento di Ādaži, dove un veicolo con a bordo quattro soldati dell’Esercito è stato colpito da una raffica esplosa da una mitragliatrice installata su un altro mezzo militare italiano. I quattro, di cui uno in condizioni più serie, sono stati immediatamente soccorsi e trasferiti in una struttura sanitaria di Riga, dove sono attualmente sottoposti alle cure e agli accertamenti necessari: nessuno di loro risulta, al momento, in pericolo di vita. Sono state immediatamente avviate le verifiche per accertare le cause e ricostruire la dinamica dell’accaduto. I quattro militari feriti appartengono all’11esimo Reggimento Bersaglieri, impegnato nell’ambito della missione Nato Forward land forces, che ha l’obiettivo di rafforzare la deterrenza e la difesa collettiva sul fianco orientale dell’Alleanza. I familiari dei soldati sono stati informati. Il ministro della Difesa, Guido Crosetto, è costantemente informato dal capo di Stato maggiore della Difesa, Luciano Portolano, e dal comandante del Covi, Giovanni Maria Iannucci, sulle condizioni dei connazionali e sugli sviluppi degli accertamenti in corso. Secondo quanto ricostruito, una raffica di mitragliatrice è partita accidentalmente da un veicolo corazzato Dardo manovrato da militari italiani e ha colpito un altro mezzo dello stesso tipo che lo precedeva con il portellone aperto, forse perché i militari stavano scendendo dal cingolato. Le indagini punteranno a ricostruire l’esatta dinamica di quanto accaduto e ad accertare eventuali errori umani. In particolare, sarà necessario chiarire come sia potuto avvenire l’incidente, dal momento che il veicolo Dardo da combattimento – cingolato in dotazione ai reparti della fanteria pesante dell’Esercito italiano dal 2002 – richiede la presenza e il controllo diretto di un equipaggio per svolgere le sue funzioni principali. Lo stesso vale per la mitragliatrice coassiale da 7,62 millimetri, dalla quale potrebbe essere stata esplosa accidentalmente la raffica di colpi. Il mezzo è inoltre dotato di un cannone automatico. L'articolo Fuoco amico durante un’esercitazione Nato in Lettonia: quattro militari italiani feriti. “Nessuno è in pericolo di vita” proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano. Friendly fire during a training exercise. Born in Latvia: four Italian soldiers injured. “No one is in life-threatening danger.” Four Italian soldiers were injured during a NATO firing exercise – that is, with the use of live ammunition – in Latvia. The incident occurred late in the afternoon in the Ādaži training area, where a vehicle carrying four soldiers from the Army was hit by a burst fired from a machine gun mounted on another Italian military vehicle. The four, one in more serious condition, were immediately rescued and transferred to a health facility in Riga, where they are currently receiving treatment and necessary examinations: none of them is, at this time, in danger of life. Investigations have been immediately launched to ascertain the causes and reconstruct the dynamics of the incident. The four injured soldiers belong to the 11th Bersaglieri Regiment, engaged as part of the NATO Forward land forces mission, which aims to strengthen deterrence and collective defense on the Alliance’s eastern flank. The soldiers' families have been informed. Defense Minister Guido Crosetto is constantly being kept updated by Chief of Staff of Defence, Luciano Portolano, and Commander of Covi, Giovanni Maria Iannucci, on the condition of the compatriots and on the developments of ongoing investigations. According to what has been reconstructed, a burst from a machine gun unexpectedly fired from an armored Dardo vehicle driven by Italian soldiers and hit another vehicle of the same type that preceded it with the ramp open, perhaps because the soldiers were getting off the tracked vehicle. The investigation will aim to reconstruct the exact dynamics of what happened and ascertain any human errors. In particular, it will be necessary to clarify how the incident could have occurred, as the Dardo combat vehicle – tracked and equipped to infantry heavy units of the Italian Army since 2002 – requires the presence and direct control of an crew to perform its main functions. The same applies to the co-axial 7.62mm machine gun, from which the burst of shots could have been accidentally fired. The vehicle is also equipped with a rapid-fire cannon.

Proton services does not support Lithuanian language 🙁 So I compiled how the situation looks across all EU languages and Proton services for #digitalsovereignty, and it is almost pretty good. @protonprivacy@mastodon.social could you please support smaller EU languages, such as Lithuanian, Latvian and Estonian (and Bulgarian is exceptionally not covered as well)? (note. number of speakers is average rough approximations) #proton #Latvia #Estonia #Lithuania

An abandoned Soviet-era military engineering school. Abandoned since the early 1990s, when Latvia asserted independence from the USSR. This school was built in the 1960s to train engineers and scientists for the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic Armed Forces. Now, it is an empty relic relegated to history. https://www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/military/soviet-radio-electronics-school-latvia/ #Latvia #History #AbandonedPlaces #Urbex #Soviet #USSR #Abandoned
