African Lion 2021- COVID-19 Prevention Efforts

U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa

June 15, 2021 | 1:18

African Lion 21 is being held this year despite the global COVID-19 pandemic. This is due to the hard work of our Moroccan hosts in ensuring our safety including the mandatory wear of masks and social distancing, sanitization of exercise areas, and cautionary COVID testing. These efforts have allowed us to work with our multi-national partners during AL21.
African Lion is U.S. Africa Command’s largest, premier, Joint, annual exercise hosted by Morocco, Tunisia and Senegal, 7-18 June. More than 7,000 participants from nine nations and NATO train together with a focus on enhancing readiness for U.S. and partner nation forces. AL21 is a multi-domain, multi-component, and multi-national exercise, which employs a full array of mission capabilities with the goal to strengthen interoperability among participants.
