 The multinational maritime exercise Phoenix Express 2022 concluded in El Alana, Tunisia on June 3rd. Phoenix Express 22 allowed participating nations to work side by side to better synchronize and rehearse for potential real-world scenarios. It was an opportunity for North African and partner navies to improve communications both shipped to shore and between maritime operation centers through realistic training scenarios involving human trafficking, drug smuggling, illegal weapons, and search and rescue scenarios that build interoperability and enhance the maritime security environment.
