The course was jointly conducted by the RDF and the Qatar Armed Forces, aiming to enhance tactical skills and operational readiness.<\/p>\n

The pass-out ceremony was presided over by the RDF Chief of Defence Staff, General MK Mubarakh, and attended by Ali Bin Hamad, Charg\u00e9 d\u2019Affaires of the State of Qatar to Rwanda, alongside senior RDF generals and a delegation from the Qatar Armed Forces.<\/p>\n

The intensive programme covered four key areas: VIP protection, counter-terrorism, anti-riot operations, and fighting in built-up areas (FIBUA). These modules were designed to equip RDF Military Police personnel with advanced capabilities to respond effectively to emerging security challenges, protect high-profile individuals, and maintain public order.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, General Mubarakh expressed gratitude to the Qatar Armed Forces for their continued support and partnership. He highlighted the importance of such joint initiatives in strengthening the RDF\u2019s operational capacity and regional security cooperation.<\/p>\n

\u201cReadiness in today\u2019s security environment requires not only robust institutions but also well-trained personnel capable of responding decisively to a wide range of threats. It is within this context that we deeply value our bilateral cooperation with the Qatar Armed Forces, as we continue to promote mutual benefits and a shared commitment to addressing evolving security threats,\u201d said the CDS.<\/p>\n

Maj Nader Alhajri, Chief of Training, praised the RDF for its dedication to deepening the partnership between Qatar and Rwanda through joint initiatives such as this training programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis course was conducted as part of the cooperation between our two countries. The skills acquired will enable RDF Military Police to perform their duties with increased efficiency and professionalism,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The successful completion of this training marks another milestone in the strategic partnership between Rwanda and Qatar, demonstrating their shared commitment to enhancing security capabilities and regional stability.<\/p>\n
