An army team from Egypt came in second place at the 2017 International Army Games’ Military Rally contest in Russia, TASS reports. The Egyptian team was the sole foreign participant in the contest. “Both the Russian and Egyptian military drivers successfully coped with the difficult conditions of the cross country terrain on a 1,700 km track amid temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius and a complex special section on the 280km Elista-Volgograd route,” Russia’s deputy defence minister said.
