The Canadian army said yesterday, Saturday, that a missing soldier had been found days ago, dead in Latvia.
According to the “French Press Agency”, George Hall, a member of the Canadian Armed Forces, deployed in the country in the Baltic region, has been found missing since September 2, a dead day of 5 of it.
The Canadian army, who said it was cooperating with the Latvian authorities in the investigations, did not reveal the cause of the death of Hall or the circumstances of the discovery of his body.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney expressed his grief over the death of Hall, and offered his condolences to his friends, family and colleagues in the armed forces. “Hall was sent as part of a brigade I had the honor to spend some time with him, late last month.”
Hall, who has been serving in the Canadian Armed Forces for nearly 20 years, was sent to Latvia as part of the operation of “Ober Hurryns”, under the auspices of NATO, according to Carne.
About 1,500 Canadian soldiers are concentrated in Latvia as part of this force that has been spreading in the country since 2017.
