Pakistani special forces joined the multinational Eternal Brotherhood-5 exercise in Uzbekistan from September 13 to 25, 2026. Participating nations included Turkiye, Azerbaijan, and Uzbekistan, with Kazakhstan as an observer. The primary goal was to enhance cooperation, communication, and professional capabilities among special forces by exchanging experiences on modern operations, combat strategies, and addressing security challenges.
PTV reported that the exercise reflects growing defense and security cooperation, mutual trust, and strengthening military relations among participating countries. Pakistan regularly engages in joint training exercises with friendly nations; for instance, it concluded a two-week counter-terrorism drill with Egypt in April 2026 and held its 13th bilateral joint military exercise with the US, ‘Inspired Gambit 2026’, earlier that year.
