The EUBAM Specialized Team, deployed in 15 October to the General Administration of Borders and Crossings in Jericho, has been composed of two experts from Hungary and two from Poland, all seconded to EUBAM by their national authorities. The Team first mapped the situation in the Command and Control Centre and Al-Karameh Terminal, and then delivered a series of well-tailored trainings for 40 operators of (GABC) Command and Control Centre and assisted GABC in drafting the Standard Operational Procedures essential for the Centre’s daily operations. In the last phase, the Specialized Team closely monitored daily work of the trained GABC operators directly in the Centre, providing them with ad hoc assistance and advise.
On 11 December, the closing ceremony was held in GABC premises, where both the GABC trainees and Specialized Team members were awarded diplomas from hands of the GABC Director General, EUBAM Head of Mission, the Head of Representative Office of Poland in Ramallah and the Deputy Head of Representative Office of Hungary in Ramallah.
