A British Army appeals court document reveals that Corporal Daniel Barton-Kennedy disobeyed orders to remove his phone's SIM card and enable security protections before deploying to Tapa, Estonia, near the Russian border, during Exercise Eastern Warrior in January 2026. His phone was subsequently hacked and nude photos were stolen and used to blackmail him; he pled guilty to disobeying a lawful command, was demoted, and sentenced to 10 months in detention.
