A three-week training course for Iraqi medical officers took place in December in the Military Logistics Training Center in Niš, in the South of Serbia.
NATO and Serbia came together to train Iraqi medical officers. These soldiers will return to Baghdad to assist in their country’s fight against ISIS.
The course is part of the NATO Defense Capacity Building Initiative for Iraq. It aims to train Iraqi military medics in dealing with trauma victims and casualty evacuation. There were 19 participants from the Iraqi Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Interior, and the Counter-Terrorism Service. Serbian military medics are providing this training.
This is the second phase of a training that started in Germany in November, and will continue in Iraq, in the theater of operations, where Belgian forces will continue with training the Iraqi medical officers in life-saving skills.
