“No Need To Panic”: Army To Conduct Field Training In Harare Suburbs This Week

The Zimbabwe National Army (ZNA) will carry out a field training exercise in Harare from Tuesday to Friday this week.

In a statement, ZNA Director of Army Public Relations, Colonel Hlengiwe Dube, said the daytime exercise will take place in several areas, including Glenview, Glen Norah, Kuwadzana, Dzivarasekwa, Mt Hampden, and Westgate.

Colonel Dube urged the public not to panic, saying the activity is part of the army’s routine training programme. The statement reads:

The Zimbabwe National Army wishes to inform the general public that one of its units is conducting a Field Training Exercise in Harare during the period 03 to 06 June 2025. 

The Training Exercise will be carried out in the general areas of Glenview, Glen Norah, Kuwadzana, Dzivarasekwa, Mt Hampden, and Westgate. 

The road to be used during the exercise is Solomon Mujuru Road, formerly known as Kirkman Road.

The Exercise will be conducted during daytime and will not affect the general public’s daily routine. 

The public is therefore requested not to panic, as the Training Exercise is part of routine training by ZNA units.
