Even before eliminating the risk of coronavirus pandemic, the Bahrain Defence Force (BDF) is planning to climb the Mt Everest in the spring season of 2021.
The National Security Advisor and Commander of the Royal Guard Sheikh Nasser Bin Hamad Al Khalifa has already selected a team for the upcoming expedition.
But before climbing the Mt Everest the team has planned to climb Mt Lobuche East and Mt Manaslu to gain the required climbing skills and training to reach the world’s highest peak.
Earlier, the Nepali Government has suspended the 2020 Mt Everest Expedition in view of growing coronavirus threat.
