    A Cameroonian special operations forces soldier maintains security outside a radar tower while his team assaults an objective during exercise Flintlock 26, in Yamoussoukro, Côte d’Ivoire, April 21, 2026. The training exercise simulated a partner-raid led by Cameroonian forces, mentored by U.S Army Green Berets assigned to 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), to conduct hostage rescue operations. Since 2005, Flintlock has served as U.S. Africa Command’s premier annual special operations exercise. This year’s exercise brought together more than 30 countries across Côte d’Ivoire and Libya to build lethality and readiness, strengthen counterterrorism skills and increase collaboration across borders.
