A platoon of Swedish Air Force Rangers is training in Greenland as part of the ongoing “Arctic Endurance” exercise, according to Sweden’s military.
In material dated February, Swedish troops can be seen in western Greenland marching with heavy packs and weapons, conducting live-fire drills and operating a drone during field exercises.
In a statement, Sweden’s armed forces said the platoon would take part in the exercise for “a couple of weeks”.
The “Arctic Endurance” exercise was launched by Denmark and forms part of “Arctic Sentry”, a NATO mission aimed at strengthening the alliance’s presence in the Arctic.
NATO said Arctic Sentry will coordinate an increased military presence of allied forces in the region, including exercises such as Denmark’s Arctic Endurance in Greenland.
The initiative comes amid heightened tensions within the alliance following U.S. President Donald Trump’s push for the United States to acquire Greenland.
NATO’s military headquarters did not specify how many troops or what types of military assets would be involved in the Arctic Sentry mission.
