    Multinational naval forces build maritime security, interoperability during African Lion 26

    Moroccan servicemembers prepare to dive to observe the Iver3-580 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle as part of African Lion 26 off the coast of Agadir, Morocco, May 7, 2026. The exercise challenged multinational naval forces to plan and execute operations across conventional warfare, maritime interdiction and unmanned underwater surveying, advancing the common operating procedures and interoperability essential to collective maritime security and regional stability.

    AL26 is U.S. Africa Command’s largest annual joint exercise, designed to strengthen collective security capabilities of the U.S., African nation and global allies. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) from April 20 to May 8, 2026, and hosted in Ghana, Morocco, Senegal and Tunisia, AL26 involves over 5,600 personnel from more than 40 nations, using innovation to drive partner-led regional security.
