The Donghae Regional Coast Guard conducted its own maritime counter-terrorism training at the commando training facility on the 9th ahead of the opening of the ‘2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics’.This training was conducted to strengthen the operational capabilities of the special forces and aviation corps in the event of counter-terrorism in order to safely host the Olympics, which will be attended by 15,000 people, including 1,900 athletes and officials from 80 countries.

In particular, this training demonstrated the prepared counter-terrorism response capabilities by performing a suppression operation in which special forces quickly descended from the air to a precise point using a helicopter to eliminate terrorists in the event of a counter-terrorism situation.

Special Forces Commander Jeong Young-chang pledged, “Through this joint training, we will conduct a final inspection of the Olympic maritime counter-terrorism and safety activity posture and do our best to support the successful hosting of the ‘2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympic Games.’”The 2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics is scheduled to be held in four cities and counties in Gangwon-do, including Gangneung, Pyeongchang, Jeongseon, and 카지노사이트킹 Hoengseong, from the 19th to February 1.
