According to organizers, more than 350 servicemen from 10 countries participated in the drills, along with units of the U.S. National Guard. The main objectives of the exercises included improving interoperability between servicemen of different states, enhancing readiness for joint operations, and strengthening regional security.

CENTCOM noted that the program involved joint training, exchange of experience, and scenario-based operational drills. The exercises traditionally bring together countries from Central and South Asia and have been held regularly for several decades.
