Roughly 5,000 Ukrainian soldiers have competed training in the UK, Ukraine’s General Staff says.

Trainers from the UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Netherlands participated in the training program titled Interflex, which gave basic knowledge, abilities and skills in tactical medicine, engineering, fire, psychological and tactical training, as well as training in urban warfare to soldiers.
