Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) dog handlers from across allied countries gathered in Lithuania to carry out practical training together as part of exercise Engineer Thunder 23.
The dogs were presented with challenging scenarios to test their sense of sight and smell. Military working dogs are an indispensable part of NATO’s forces, playing crucial roles in allied military police, engineer and special operations units, according to a press release.
Organised and hosted by the Lithuanian Army’s Colonel Juozas Vitkus Engineering Battalion, the multinational exercise Engineer Thunder 23 featured the participation of more than 1,000 troops from 11 NATO allies.
