Why British soldiers are preparing for war in Europe… in Kenya

Why are British troops training for a possible war in Europe thousands of miles away in Kenya? BFBS Forces News joins the 1st Battalion The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment (1 LANCS) on a vast training area in Kenya as they prepare for an operational deployment to Nato's frontline in Estonia. From tough terrain and extreme conditions to trench warfare and drone technology, the soldiers are adapting their tactics to prepare for the realities of modern warfare. With Russia posing an increasing threat to Nato's eastern flank, the battalion is preparing to join the UK's contribution to Nato's Forward Land Forces under Operation Cabrit. We find out how lessons from the war in Ukraine are changing the way British soldiers prepare to fight – and how drones, AI-assisted targeting and new battlefield tactics could shape the next conflict.
