Canadian military using drones to train Ukrainian Armed Forces

The Canadian Armed Forces are employing drones to enhance the training of Ukrainian defenders in modern combat techniques.

Canada's UNIFIER training mission announced this on its X account, Ukrinform reports.

"Here at Operation UNIFIER we use drones to create more realistic training scenarios whether leveraging them as instruments for information gathering or simulating a potential threat in the battle space," the post said.

The Canadian military emphasized that drones are a powerful tool in the hands of a soldier.

Since the launch of Operation UNIFIER in 2015, Canadian military personnel have trained over 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers. Although Canadian instructors temporarily withdrew from Ukraine following Russia's full-scale invasion, training efforts resumed within months in the UK, Poland, and Latvia.
