Since the 14th of February, 2010 the unit of the RA AF peacekeeping

brigade conducts security support issues in the region of Kunduz in

Afghanistan. The main task of the Armenian unit is to ensure security

of the airfield of Kunduz. The daily service includes patrolling in

the airfield and the area around it, guarding the posts, as well as

uncovering possible threats.

 

The Armenians serve under the German command in the ISAF RC North

PRT in the region of Kunduz, Afghanistan. In the past three weeks

the group has received the high evaluation of the German command for

showing high effectiveness in the extra safety means undertaken in

the area of the airfield with their own initiative.
