Made up of elements of the Royal Anglian Regiment and Light Dragoons, the patrol was aimed at enhancing security along the main supply route from Gao to Ansongo, about 85 km to the southeast, and involved the LRRG covering 1,500 km and visiting 60 villages.

“The off-road manoeuvrability of the Light Dragoons’ Jackal 2 and Coyote vehicles enabled the task group to probe deep over incredibly challenging terrain in 40 degree heat to engage with the local population in remote areas not previously reached by security forces, while the Foxhounds of the 2 Company Royal Anglian were used in the large population centres on the main supply route,” the army said.
