ISLAMABAD: A Russian Army Contingent has arrived in Pakistan to participate in Pak-Russia Joint Training Exercise ‘Druzhba-III’, DG ISPR Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor said in a statement Monday.

"This is 3rd exercise as part of Pak-Russia bilateral training cooperation. The 1st Exercise was held in Pakistan during 2016, while 2nd in Russia during 2017, he further explained.

The Pakistan Army and the Russian military will be holding joint military drills in the mountains of Pakistan till November 4.

According to Vadim Astafyev, head of the press service of the Russian Southern Military District, the joint drills – Friendship 2018 – will be held at the training range in Pabbi town in Nowshera district. More than 70 troopers from Russia’s southern military district will participate in the drills.
