Mongolia joint military exercise ‘Nomadic Elephant’ begins

The 17th edition of the India-Mongolia military exercise ‘Nomadic Elephant’ began on Saturday at the Special Forces Training Centre in Ulaanbaatar. 

The 14-day long joint drills will involve counter-terrorism operations in semi-mountainous terrain, a critical area of operational focus given the contemporary security landscape. The troops will also rehearse activities conducted during United Nations peacekeeping operations, simulating real-world situations where multinational forces must collaborate effectively in complex environments.

This collaboration aims to improve both forces’ ability to respond swiftly and effectively during operations. As the exercise progresses, the participating forces will engage in a series of tactical drills, exchanging knowledge and expertise, while building lasting ties of friendship and trust.
