KUALA LUMPUR, July 31 (Bernama) -- The Emirati Police Support Team initiated its mission to assist the French Police in securing the Paris 2024 Olympics, launched recently by France’s President Emmanuel Macron.

Police dog units (K9) inspected the designated areas, based on intensive training and thorough mapping of the areas. Specialised teams carried out foot patrols across various parts of Paris, as part of their assigned duties, which reflects the deep bilateral cooperation and distinguished relations between the UAE and France.
The UAE’s involvement in securing the Paris 2024 Olympics underscores the efficiency and professionalism of Emirati police personnel, under the guidance and support of the higher leadership, which provides its forces with advanced equipment and world-class training to enhance their skills as per the highest international standards.
This will allow the UAE police forces to exchange expertise and best practices with their international counterparts, further boosting their capabilities in various fields.
The Emirati police team consists of experienced female officers from the Ministry of Interior and qualified and trained specialists representing the various police sectors, K9, and security support teams.
Their participation will also help to consolidate the UAE's good reputation and its leading role in joint international cooperation and action.
