    A U.S. Green Beret assigned to 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne) and Ivorian special operations soldiers suppress an enemy vehicle during a vehicle interdiction demonstration during Flintlock 26’s closing ceremony in Côte d’Ivoire, April 30, 2026. The demonstration highlighted tactics codified during Flintlock 26, integrating small unmanned aircraft systems and local law enforcement to meet shared security objectives. 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.
