EU NAVFOR’s warship ESPS Patiño has conducted capacity building with Djiboutian Armed Forces during a recent port visit.

Soldiers from the Djiboutian Armed Forces visited the EU Naval Force Warship ESPS PATIÑO on the morning of 27th February 2018 to improve their skills during Local Maritime Capacity Building (LMCB). The ship's military boarding and medical teams provided training in Visit Boarding Search and Seizure (VBSS) and basic first aid procedures.

Support and skills transfer of this kind with local partners is key to developing capacity and security in the region, ensuring future prosperity and the continued free flow of international maritime trade around the Horn of Africa.
