| Africa Live: Largest US military exercise in East Africa begins - BBC News | |
| (about 1 hour later) | |
| BBC Monitoring | |
| The world through its media | |
| A US-led military exercise code-named "Justified Accord" begins in Kenya | |
| on Monday, with more than 20 nations taking part in what has been billed as the | |
| largest event of its kind in East Africa. | |
| The 11-day exercise, which will end next Thursday, is aimed at increasing | |
| participating countries’ readiness for peacekeeping missions, crisis response | |
| and humanitarian assistance, according to state-owned Somali broadcaster | |
| SNTV and Kenyan media. | |
| Dozens of US-trained Somali commandos will take part in the exercise, which private news website Kenyans.co.ke said will | |
| bring together 1,000 personnel and units from 23 nations. | |
| The US military said Justified Accord is its "largest exercise in East Africa". | |
| "Justified Accord showcases the desire of US and partner nations to | |
| increase readiness and interoperability for regional security and crisis | |
| response," the military said. | |
| The US has led similar exercises in East Africa in recent years as the | |
| region grapples with a deadly al-Shabab insurgency and other security | |
| challenges. | |
