International course on biological weapons and toxicology



An international course on biological weapons and toxicology was held at the SAF CBRN Training Centre in Kruševac this week.
  The course was attended by members of the armed forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Egypt, Italy, Hungary, the United States of America, Slovenia and Spain.
 
The trainees broadened their knowledge of biological weapons and toxicology and practiced the use of military equipment for the protection against biological agents, as well as the equipment for biological detection, identification, and decontamination.
 
During the course, they used an improvised laboratory, which was set up so that the participants could practice countering bioterrorism.
 
The training course was delivered by the CBRN Training Centre instructors and toxicology experts from the Military Medical Academy and “Vinča” Institute of Nuclear Sciences.
  The objectives of the course were successfully fulfilled. Such and similar international training activities carried out at the Serbian Armed Forces CBRN Centre testify to the quality of instructors and training system in the Serbian Armed Forces, contributing also to the improvement of cooperation with the partner countries’ armed forces.
