Tuesday, 24.8.2021 | International Co-operation
Final preparations for the international military competition of Military Police units are under way. The competition will take place from August 30 till September 3 at „Žiča“ and „Beranovac“ military complexes in Kraljevo.
In this International Army Games discipline, for the first time organised in Serbia, our team will compete for the best MP unit title against teams from Kazakhstan, Qatar, Cyprus, Iran and Russian Federation, while the observers will be from Belarus, Greece, Egypt and Hungary.
The competing teams arrived in Serbia in the previous days and started with trainings and preparations that will last until the opening ceremony on August 29 on the central Kraljevo square. MP officers from six countries went through rigorous selections and competitions at the national level, in order to gain the right to defend the colours of their countries at the final competition in our country.
Military police officers will compete in four disciplines. The first two phases will be held on August 30 and 31 at the military complex "Žiča" and will consist of individual and team competitions in shooting in conditions that simulate real combat situations. The third phase, called the "Military Police Patrol Route" at the "Beranovac" military complex on September 1, will be a complex test of skills that teams will have to show when solving tactical tasks specific to their service. At the same place, on September 3, the final phase of the competition will take place - "Heroes’ Race", in which the complete team of five people will have to run a demanding 12-kilometer track in the shortest time and overcome 30 obstacles, which will be a test of physical fitness and team spirit.
The regularity of the competition, strict observance of the rules and recording of the results will be monitored by the Chief Judging Panel, which will include representatives of all participating countries.
