B-Roll: US, Tunisian Armed Forces collaborate in forensic lab during African Lion 2025

U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa

April 28, 2025 | 1:40

Members of the U.S. Army Joint Theater Forensic Analysis Center and Tunisian Armed Forces collaborate in Bizerte, Tunisia, April 28, 2025, during exercise African Lion 2025 (AL25). This partnership highlighted the shared commitment to enhance multinational forensic capabilities and operational readiness. AL25 is set to be the largest annual military exercise in Africa, bringing together over 40 nations, including seven NATO allies and 10,000 troops to conduct realistic, dynamic and collaborative training in an austere environment that intersects multiple geographic and functional combatant commands. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) on behalf of the U.S. Africa Command, AL25 takes place from April 14 to May 23, 2025, across Ghana, Morocco, Senegal, and Tunisia. This large-scale exercise will enhance our ability to work together in complex, multi-domain operations—preparing forces to deploy, fight and win. (U.S. Army Reserve Broll by Staff Sgt. Brian D.
