    British instructors train Ukrainian Armed Forces to counter mine threat as part of Interflex

    The British military is conducting demining training for the Ukrainian military as part of Operation Interflex. Twelve NATO and partner countries have joined the initiative to train the Ukrainian Armed Forces in countering explosive ordnance.

    British instructors are teaching Ukrainian military how to defuse explosive devices. This is reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, UNN reports.

    Details

    The exercise is part of Operation Interflex, an international initiative led by the United Kingdom that began in July 2022.

    Operation Interflex aims to train the Ukrainian Armed Forces and involves 12 NATO and partner nations, including Australia, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Romania, Sweden, and Kosovo. These nations provide instructors who impart important skills for dealing with explosive ordnance.

    According to estimates by the HALO Trust , after russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, up to two million landmines could have been planted in the country, which have already claimed the lives of many military and civilians. This situation makes demining training extremely important, as EOD (explosive ordnance disposal) specialists not only save lives at the front, but also help to return security to peaceful regions.
