TIRANA, Aug 29 /ATA/  – A team of Albanian Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) experts from the engineering battalion of the Support Command has earned NATO certification following a successful high-level training exercise in Latvia.

NATO posted images of the training on its official website, saying “Albanian Explosive Ordnance Disposal team conducted a high-impact training and demonstration, showcasing their advanced techniques and tools at Camp Adazi in Latvia.”

NATO’s official website said that the Albanian EOD experts explored door-opening techniques, deployed drones to retrieve simulated threat packages, and demonstrated the power of water pellet cannon machines in neutralizing potential hazards.
