The joint drills focused on refining tactics, procedures, and techniques for counterterrorism operations, with particular attention to operations in urban environments and measures against improvised explosive devices. The exercise also aimed to further strengthen “the longstanding military-to-military cooperation between the two friendly countries,” according to reports.
