Valuable donation: the armed forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina will receive three new mine detection dogs

The Demining Battalion of the Armed Forces of Bosnia and Herzegovina received three new mine-detection dogs donated by the Norwegian humanitarian organization Norsk Folkehjelp (NPA) through its Global Training Center for Mine Detection Dogs and Explosives (GTC). This donation brings the total number of dogs provided by GTC to the battalion since 2010 to 35. The collaboration between the organization and the state institution is described as one of the most successful examples of partnership in the field of humanitarian demining in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Donirani psi čine važan dio operativnih kapaciteta Deminerskog bataljona OS BiH, čiji pripadnici svakodnevno učestvuju u aktivnostima deminiranja i smanjenja rizika od mina

Deminerski bataljon Oružanih snaga Bosne i Hercegovine dobio je tri nova psa za otkrivanje mina, koje je 19. juna 2026. godine, u Butmiru donirala humanitarna nevladina organizacija Norveška narodna pomoć (NPA), putem svog Globalnog centra za obuku pasa za otkrivanje mina i eksploziva (GTC).

Ovom primopredajom ukupan broj pasa koje je GTC donirao Deminerskom bataljonu OS BiH od 2010. godine porastao je na 35 pasa.

Riječ je o dugogodišnjoj saradnji koja predstavlja jedan od najuspješnijih primjera partnerstva između humanitarne nevladine organizacije i državnih institucija u području humanitarnog deminiranja u Bosni i Hercegovini. Donirani psi čine važan dio operativnih kapaciteta Deminerskog bataljona OS BiH, čiji pripadnici svakodnevno učestvuju u aktivnostima deminiranja i smanjenja rizika od mina.

Ova saradnja temelji se na dugoročnom pristupu održavanju sposobnosti upotrebe pasa za otkrivanje mina.

Nastavak vijesti ispod oglasa

Radni vijek pasa za otkrivanje mina u prosjeku traje između šest i osam godina, nakon čega se povlače iz operativne upotrebe. Kako bi se zadržao potreban broj operativnih timova, neophodno je kontinuirano osposobljavati nove pse i uvoditi ih u operativnu upotrebu te osiguravati prijenos iskustva na nove generacije vodiča i timova.

To podrazumijeva i sistematski proces selekcije, obuke, certificiranja, veterinarske brige i razvoja vodiča pasa, kako bi se osigurala dugoročna održivost ove specijalizirane sposobnosti unutar Oružanih snaga BiH.
