Kenya and Britain have agreed to resume military training in Kenya after delays in signing a new defense cooperation agreementUK to resume military training in Kenya after delays over human rights concernsNAIROBI, Kenya -- Kenya and Britain on Tuesday agreed to resume military training in the East African nation after a delay in signing a new defense cooperation agreement that were largely attributed to Kenyan legislators' concerns about protecting nearby communities. Neither government commented on allegations of human rights violations involving British soldiers during previous training exercises. Kenyan authorities had denied local media reports that Britain was considering relocating some military training activities to neighboring Tanzania. The British government in a statement said Kenya's government had agreed to issue the necessary licenses and permissions and that training would resume later this year. In 2021, a fire accidentally sparked by British soldiers destroyed more than 12,000 acres of the Lolldaiga Conservancy near the training ground.
