U.S. Army Soldiers with the 789th Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company trained with members of the Tunisian armed forces during African Lion 23 in Ben Ghilouf, Tunisia. AL 23 provides an opportunity to conduct realistic, dynamic, and collaborative readiness training in an austere environment that intersects multiple geographic and functional combatant commands including U.S. Africa Command, U.S. European Command, and U.S. Central Command. Eighteen nations and approximately 8,000 personnel will participate in African Lion 2023, U.S. Africa Command's largest annual combined, joint exercise that will take place in multiple countries, to include Tunisia, from May 13 - June 18, 2023.
