According to the Ritzau news agency, 1600 young people in Denmark began a new extended basic military service on Monday. Denmark recently extended its basic military service from four to 11 months due to the changing security situation in Europe. The country also introduced compulsory military service for women aged 18 and over - although it continues to conscript only a proportion of each age cohort. Danish media reported, citing the royal house, that Isabella will forgo any remuneration during her military service. Isabella's brother, Crown Prince Christian, also completed his military service in Slagelse.
