Indian and the US militaries will conduct the battalion-level “Yudh Abhyas” exercise between November 15 and December 2 at Auli in Uttarakhand, just 100 km from the Line of Actual Control (LAC). Before this, between November 8 and 18, the member countries of the “Quad” will conduct the Malabar exercise off Yokosuka in Japan, a report in the Times of India (TOI) said. The ‘Quad’ includes the US, Japan, Australia and India.
Earlier in 2022, the Quad had declared that it would “deter” any “coercion” in the Indo-Pacific with an eye on China’s expansionist policies. “Yudh Abhyas” will include “high-altitude warfare drills”, the report added.
