Fatima Hasanova read more The Azerbaijani army operations commando units conducted drills
under the annual combat training plan.
Citing the Defence Ministry, Azernews reports that according to
the combat training plan for 2023, the commandos moving along the
designated route completed the tasks of neutralising the fictitious
enemy's sabotage group that attempted to commit a provocation.
As they moved deeper into the operational area, the commandos
found the enemy's makeshift encampments. Successful efforts were
made to stop the fictitious enemy from sabotaging the area.
The primary goals of the exercises conducted are to enhance
military personnel's tactical abilities, their proficiency with
small arms, and the combat readiness of the operations commando
units.
On June 26, 2022, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev attended
the opening ceremony of a new commando military unit as part of his
visit to Kalbajar District. That was the second commando military
unit commissioned in the liberated regions, following the one
founded in Hadrut on December 24, 2021.
Earlier, President Aliyev noted that Azerbaijan would create
many commando brigades across the country. He described the
creation of the commando brigade unit in Hadrut as a significant
event of strategic importance.
Experts characterised the creation of commando brigades in
Azerbaijan as a new stage in the national army building. It was
also assessed as a clear message for supporters of revanchist ideas
in Armenia.
