At a welcome ceremony at Noi Bai International Airport, Deputy Defense Minister Nguyen Truong Thang commended the unit for fulfilling its duties with distinction while ensuring the absolute safety of all personnel despite harsh weather conditions and demanding operational challenges in the remote Abyei region.
During its deployment, the unit focused on building, repairing, and upgrading transport infrastructure and technical systems to support mission operations as well as the humanitarian needs and daily lives of local residents.
The Vietnamese peacekeepers also actively engaged in civil-military cooperation activities, including renovating schools and hospitals and providing material assistance to local communities.
Local authorities and residents expressed deep appreciation for these practical contributions, which helped strengthen international confidence in Vietnam’s peacekeeping force and promote the image of Vietnamese soldiers as professional, responsible, and compassionate peacekeepers.
