The exercises, named Payambar-e-A’azam [Great Prophet] 19, began on Saturday in a designated combat zone, featuring various specialized divisions and units, particularly from the Mirza Kuchak Khan Brigades.

In the first phase of the drills, rapid response operation scenarios were implemented, including the swift deployment of troops and military equipment to the exercise area.
