In a snow-covered training area in Lithuania, nearly 4000 soldiers from 11 countries are taking part in Exercise Iron Sword. Lithuania is hosting the exercise to help train its troops and to promote regional stability and security. The exercise is taking place at two locations in Lithuania: the General Silvestras Žukauskas training area in Pabradė and the Gaižiūnai training area in Rukla.

Footage includes soldiers live firing as they take part in urban and forest simulated combat maneuvers, plus drone shots of troops moving through the forest and urban areas.
