Many soldiers from different countries take part in Nepal as the Shanti Abhyas exercise. The Nepal Army (NA) is hosting the U.S. Army for a combined exercise focusing on disaster response training beginning in mid October. The exercise will commence on October 18th with the arrival of two U.S. Air Force C-130 Hercules cargo aircraft. This aircraft is known for its light cargo capacity and minimal runway requirements. The aircraft will arrive with U.S. Army personnel and equipment necessary to conduct training. The exercise is approved by the Ministry of Home Affairs. Its main objective is to develop the Nepal Army’s role in directing international assistance during a disaster-related crisis. The exercise will consist of combined Nepal Army and U.S. Army parachute training to simulate a disaster response, light search and rescue training with helicopter support, and a humanitarian aid and disaster relief expert exchange planned and executed by the Mahabir Rangers.
