China and Pakistan have started a nearly 2 week long Joint Military Exercise about 150 kilometers north of Islamabad, that will mainly focus on anti-terrorism operations.

The joint military drill, aims to increase exchanges and information through a broad training program in real time.

The Pakistani military says these exercises focus on low-intensity conflict environments.

This will be the fourth time the two militaries collaborate in such an anti-terror drill, since the first one was held back in 2004.
