UAE security forces, alongside eight nations, have employed a joint simulation exercise that aims to prevent criminals from exploiting advanced technologies for illicit activities, including human and arms trafficking.
Organised by the General Secretariat of the International Security Alliance, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, ISALEX 3.0 includes the participation of forces from Bahrain, Slovakia, Senegal, France, Spain, Italy, Morocco and Singapore.
Held in Bahrain, the exercises simulate real-world criminal tactics used by gangs and networks, where participants employ innovative data collection techniques, artificial intelligence tools, and smart simulation systems to tackle solutions.
These elements aim to boost the preparedness of participating agencies and sharpen their analytical and rapid-response capabilities.
Teams involved include special forces, K9 police dog units, assault teams, drone teams, the air wing, maritime assault teams, frogmen, and other support and assistance teams.
The simulations are held in efforts to enhance security cooperation and exchange expertise in confronting contemporary threats and transnational organised crime.
The third edition was held in the presence of Lieutenant General Sheikh Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa, Minister of Interior in Bahrain.
