New SAF team in EUTM-Somalia
This week, members of the Serbian contingent participating in the European Union Training Mission in Somalia (EUTM-Somalia) have been replaced with new personnel.
Our contingent, which will be working in the mission area over the next six months, consists of a staff officer serving as mission’s chief of medical corps and a medical team responsible for providing medical training support and primary health care to members of the international force stationed at Mogadishu Airport.
They have replaced their fellow doctors and medical technicians who, during their deployment, successfully carried out all the tasks related to preventive healthcare and treatment of the injured and ill personnel, thus confirming the enviable reputation that the Serbian Armed Forces’ Medical Corps enjoys in the international environment.
The Serbian Armed Forces began participating in EUTM Somalia in 2012, and so far, more than 120 doctors and medical technicians have been deployed to this African country to work as part of the mission command and medical team.
