As reported, Canadian service members have trained more than 37,000 Ukrainian soldiers in modern combat skills as part of Operation UNIFIER since 2015. After the start of the full-scale Russian invasion, Canadian instructors left the territory of Ukraine but within a few months, training was resumed in Great Britain, Poland and Latvia.
