About
Moldovan army engineers will receive special training as part of an OSCE project on the destruction of air bombs, phosphorous cartridges for air bombs, and explosive charges. The training will be conducted by Paul Grimsley, an OSCE consultant on explosive ordnance disposal.
Following the successful completion of the training, army engineers will carry out the safe destruction of bombs and other items. This process is expected to be completed by the end of July 2011.
The project, which is funded by Spain and Ireland, will contribute towards regional stability by destroying surpluses of conventional ammunition and thereby reduce the risk of accident or proliferation.
