Twelve military personnel have been injured when two Singaporean armoured vehicles collided during a training exercise in Australia, officials said Wednesday.
The personnel “sustained non-serious injuries” when one Hunter Armoured Fighting Vehicle “rear-ended another” on Tuesday at Shoalwater Bay Military Training Area in Queensland state, Singapore’s Defence Ministry said in a statement.
The injured were flown by helicopter to a hospital for treatment, and Rockhampton Hospital said in a statement that all has been discharged by Wednesday.
The Singapore Armed Forces are conducting Exercise Wallaby, its largest overseas unilateral exercise involving 6,200 personnel.
