Defense Threat Reduction Agency
June 24, 2024 | 2:23
A Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Building Partner Capacity team traveled to Kosovo 3-7 June 2024 to conduct a Counter WMD field training exercise with the Kosovo Security Force (KSF) Hazardous Material (HAZMAT) Company. This was the final event in a multi-year security initiative to train and equip Kosovo first responders to serve as a regional response team that is interoperable with NATO standards.

This field training exercise displayed the HAZMAT Company’s ability to respond to Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) incidents alongside fellow Kosovo interagency partners. Participants responded to challenging simulated Counter WMD scenarios confirming their ability to work as a cohesive team to respond using counter WMD tactics, techniques, and procedures learned through DTRA’s training.
