About 200 Ukrainians have just completed the final part of an intensive five-week training course that's been conducted under the auspices of the British Ministry of Defence.
Earlier this week, Britain's Ministry of Defence invited foreign journalists, including from Canada, to observe the training program for Ukrainian recruits, which it calls Operation Interflex.
The goal is to eventually give up to 20,000 Ukrainian soldiers a NATO-quality immersion in the basics of military combat, tactics and battlefield casualty response.
Canada is one of several Western partners taking part in the program, with approximately 160 military personnel stationed in England.
New Zealand, the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Latvia and Denmark are among the other countries participating in the British-led program.
For Canada's military, it is the second-generation version of what began in 2015 as Operation Unifier, which was based out of the International Centre for Peacekeeping and Security near Lviv, Ukraine.
