High-ranking military officials from the U.S. and its top African allies recently participated in Africa Lion, the United States' largest annual joint military exercise on the continent, held in Morocco. The exercise included live-fire demonstrations, F-16 formations, and strategic discussions on defending the Atlantic coastline.
With approximately 8,100 military forces from nearly three dozen countries maneuvering through Tunisia, Ghana, Senegal, and Morocco, the war games aimed to address new challenges in volatile regions. Generals highlighted the growth of partnerships between the U.S. and African militaries since the exercise began 20 years ago.
