    The 31-member Czech team includes pilots and technicians, but also logistics experts and military police. It will be deployed within the operation against the Islamic State (IS) organisation and stay in Iraq at least until the end of 2018.

    Czech Chief-of-Staff Josef Becvar said a preparatory team arrived in Iraq at the end of June to prepare all that the consulting team needed for its work.
    Defence Minister Martin Stropnicky said the Czech air consulting team contributes to the enhancement of capabilities of the Iraqi army.
    Stropnicky said previously the team will work at the Balad air base, situated about 80 km from Baghdad.
