With its invasion of #Ukraine, #Russia has brought suffering & pain as the number of victims of sexual violence continues to grow. No war is a justification for such crimes. I appeal to Russia’s soldiers & their superiors to put an end to their violence.

Czech 81 mm mortars deliver increased effects of fire thanks to our US partners feeding laser targeting data to Czech mortars during live fire training. We never miss an opportunity to work with professionals just as our boys never miss their targets. #WeAreNATO #StrongerTogether

Three weeks of deployment, two days of joint training and one live fire action. Mission accomplished! Units of NATO_MN_BG_SVK and @ArmadaSR have proven that interoperability is the key for success for every operation led by @NATO We are #StrongerTogether #WeAreNATO

There is no such thing as too much maintenance. Our members from US Task Force are fully aware of this and as a result maintenance is a top priority. This ensures they are able to train hard and know that their equipment can handle any situation. #WeAreNATO

Posilujeme východní křídlo. Ve výcvikovém prostoru Lešt vzniká mnohonárodní bojové uskupení, kterému velíme. A taky se rýsuje exkluzivní spolupráce mezi českými a slovenskými výsadkáři. O tom všem dnes jednal generál Opata se svým protějškem generálem Zmekem. #WeAreNATO

Yesterday we were honored with an important visit. We welcomed Chief of General Staff of @ArmadaSR GEN Zmeko for 🇸🇰Host Nation, together with his 🇨🇿counterpart GEN Opata as a representative of Leading Nation. Our soldiers received words of gratitude and encouragement. Thank you!

The establishment of NATO_MN_BG_SVK is not without reasons. In the past @NATO has set up Battlegroups in the Baltic States. There is a raging war in neighbouring country thus NATO is setting up similar Battlegroups on the eastern flank! #WeAreNATO #StrongerTogether

Our goal is nothing more than to defend NATO's eastern flank and deter anyone from aggression. For this purpose, after approval by the Slovak Republic, NATO established a Battlegroup in the territory of Slovakia to protect NATO's borders. #WeAreNATO #StrongerTogether

We are strong and united, three thousand soldiers, one mission, ready to defend every inch of our land no matter the cost! We are #StrongerTogether! #WeAreNATO

MASCAL - Mass Casualty Training. Recent events show that we need to be prepared for everything. This is why we practice simulated mass casualty producing events as close to reality as possible. We are always ready to take care of our Allies, we are professionals, #WeAreNATO!

Our Battlegroup participates in one of the largest international exercises organized in Slovakia, Slovak Shield 2022! This is the first joint training of 🇨🇿🇺🇸@NATO_MN_BG_SVK units together with 🇸🇰 partners.

🇺🇸 members of @NATO_MN_BG_SVK trained and took part in Slovak Shield. This 🇸🇰 joint exercise increased our interoperability and combined readiness as a battlegroup. It provided us a great opportunity to train together. We are now #StrongerTogether #WeAreNATO

The time of deployment of the 1st rotation of Battlegroup is imminent. This is 🇨🇿LTC František, the commander of the 🇨🇿NSE. He and his team did a tremendous amount of work to make the deployment of the 1st rotation as smooth as possible. Thanks to them, we are #StrongerTogether

#TankTuesday This Danish Leopard 2 tank fires and maneuvers during a multinational live-fire exercise in Poland 🇵🇱 at #DefenderEurope22 - the U.S. Army Europe and Africa multinational training exercise. U.S. Army and NATO forces train hard to fight as one! #WeAreNATO

The circle closes together with the arrival of the 🇩🇪 German part of our Battlegroup. The 🇩🇪 infantry company with its IFVs Boxer has just arrived and @NATO_MN_BG_SVK is complete. We are proud that Bundeswehr im Einsatz is part of our Battlegroup! #WeAreNATO

Warm welcome to 🇩🇪 #German troops. #German mechanized company w/ Boxer IFVs joining @NATO_MN_BG_SVK at 🇸🇰 #Slovak military training area #Lest. Thank you Verteidigungsministerium for strengthening NATO's #security & keeping us safe. #WeAreNATO
