according to a press release MUD, which carries out intelligence and counterintelligence activities in the interests of the Bundeswehr, the error was in drawing the wrong graphics card the presence of German troops in the territories of other countries.
Based on the card data, the German military presence, among other States, and even in a country like Jordan. For clarity, areas where there is the Bundeswehr, including the territory of Jordan, painted over in gray. The error lies in the fact that together with the territory of Jordan was shaded and considerable adjacent part of the territory of Israel, where German troops, of course not.
As explained in the press service of DIA, map created with Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 IT specialists of the German counterintelligence called her: Einsatzgebiete der Bundeswehr mit Beteiligung des MAD. Literally – the territory occupied by the Bundeswehr with the participation of the military counterintelligence.
by the Way, the word Einsatzgebiete readily admits and translation as the field of hostilities. At least, this translation offers one of the most famous sites of translation in Yandex.
From the press release should not be, why do we need to do this map. Our sources in Germany do not exclude that thus the German counterintelligence on the official website of the Department wanted to show the openness of the Department.
the Mistake, of course, fixed, but had to apologize. While the Ministry admitted that he created a map based on a similar map of the Bundeswehr, where the territory of Jordan was different in color from Israel, so that the borders were visible, and mistakes when creating your card could have been avoided. However, conducted an internal investigation of the incident in the MUD has not established malice, and it definitely is simply about annoying oversights by technical staff.
the President of the military counterintelligence, Christoph Grams indicated that his Department will work to improve personnel management in the Department. Speaking in Russian, will be made HR conclusions.
