The Estonian government has called up 830 reservists from the Estonian Defense League, a paramilitary corps, for quick training called Okas or Feather. Lääne District Commander Major Andres Valli is leading the training based on experience from fighting in Ukraine.
The Government stressed that there is no immediate military threat to Estonia. The objective of the Okas is to test the chain of command of the national defense, from the decision of the government until the rapid response units are ready for combat.
