In Revensdorf, Germany Ukrainian troops are honing their skills in defending against enemy attacks during the “Combined Resolve 10” military games, which are being held now.

The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said that according to the scenario, the enemy is trying to locate Ukrainian troops’ positions with drones and attack with armored cars. More than three and a half thousand service personnel from 13 NATO member countries and Alliance partners are taking part in the exercises, which began April 26.

On his Facebook page, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko said, “Organizers of the Combined Resolve X international exercises had to change the scenario because of the daring, professional and surprisingly effective actions of Ukrainian militaries. Our paratroopers from the 79th separate assault brigade and tankers from the 14th separate mechanized brigade showed real success at the military training area.”
