The United States Africa Command (AFRICOM) said that the Security Force Assistance Brigade in Tunisia, previously mentioned in reports as being considered for use, due to fears of Russian activity in Libya, is a small training unit.

AFRICOM stated that the training unit, is part of the military assistance program, however it does not mean, in any way, that it is involved in a military combat situation, adding that it is important to understand the potential need for such training, along with searching for new ways of partnership, as it put it.
