The courses, which are part of the training programmes, are designed to train Ukrainian troops to operate and maintain the weapons, equipment and technics that have been handed over to Ukraine. They are also aimed at training different-level commanders and military specialists in various fields.

In 2024, the Lithuanian Armed Forces will continue to contribute to the European Union (EU) Military Assistance Mission in support of Ukraine (EUMAM Ukraine) by training about 1,200 Ukrainians.

The first group of trainers will leave for the new multi-month training cycle of the international operation Interflex in mid-January next year and will train 200 soldiers, while Lithuania will train some 1,600 Ukrainian soldiers over the year.
