The Armed Forces have developed outstanding health and training programmes for recruits, a seminar on national service held in Fujairah on Monday said.

The meeting was organised by the media bureau at the Fujairah Ruler’s court and Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, president of the General Women’s Union, was a speaker.

She said: “We are preparing the new batches to enter the battlefield of national and military service under a healthy umbrella that prevents injuries and fractures and ensures safe muscle and body building.”

Sheikha Fatima added that authorities were also working on a moral support unit to prepare recruits to face any possible psychological problems.
