\u201cPakistan Army and the People\u2019s Liberation Army (PLA) of China are conducting joint counterterrorism exercise Warrior-IX from 28 November to 14 December 2025,\u201d said the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).<\/p>\n

A \u2018Distinguished Visitors Day\u2019 was also held today during the drills at the National Counter Terrorism Centre (NCTC) Pabbi.

Senior dignitaries from China accompanied Zaidong.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonourable guests were briefed on the scope, objectives, and conduct of the joint exercise during the visit. They witnessed various counter-terrorism drills and appreciated the professionalism, operational competence, and high morale demonstrated by the participating troops from both sides.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe exercise reflects strong defence collaboration between Pakistan and China and reaffirms the commitment of both Armed Forces to working together for peace and stability,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

Pakistan and China, being strategic allies, maintain close coordination and cooperation in defence-related matter. Beijing has become the primary arms supplier of Islamabad.<\/p>\n

Chinese-built J-10CE fighter aircraft performed exceptionally well during the May conflict with India and were credited with shooting down at least 6 Indian Air Force fighters in aerial engagements that firmly established the national air force\u2019s qualitative edge over India.<\/p>\n

Last year, the two forces participated<\/a> in Warrior-VIII joint drills. The two countries also routinely conduct drills involving naval and air forces and practice interoperability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
