The injuries sustained by two servicemen of the Grand Duke Kęstutis Mechanized Infantry Battalion are minor, said commander Arūnas Gajauskas.
He said the soldiers were training with a Carl Gustav recoilless rifle when the accident happened at General Silvestras Žukauskas Training Ground. A grenade went off closer than expected and shrapnel hit two sodliers.
The two servicemen were taken to a hospital in Vilnius.
