A two-week-long multinational counter-terrorism exercise, involving special forces from Pakistan, Bahrain, Iraq, and Kuwait, concluded in northwest Pakistan on Monday.
Billed as “Exercise Fajar Al Sharq-V,” the drill was held at the National Counter Terrorism Centre Pabbi in northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, according to a statement from the Pakistan Army.
The exercise, it added, was aimed at nurturing of joint employment and interoperability besides harnessing the historic military-to-military relations among the “brotherly” countries.
“The member countries displayed zeal and enthusiasm for benefiting from each others’ expertise/experience,” the statement concluded.
