With 34 countries taking part, this multinational Tri-Services military exercise is a historic event. It is the largest joint military exercise that has ever been held in the Middle East and North Africa area.
This is the first time the Indian Navy has taken part in Ex Bright Star. Naval ships from other friendly foreign navies will also be there. The exercises will last for more than two weeks and include a lot of operations and training. They are meant to show that the participating navies can work together as a single force and to show that they are all committed to maritime security and global stability through training together and understanding each other.
The Indian Navy says that E x Bright Star 23 will take place in two parts. During the Harbour Phase, there are many different things going on, such as trips between decks, professional exchanges, sports games, and meetings to plan and run the Sea Phase.
During the Sea Phase, there will be complicated, high-intensity drills, such as cross-deck flying, anti-surface and anti-air exercises, and live-fire drills with weapons. The exercise gives the Indian Navy a chance to improve and show its interoperability, as well as learn from its partner countries about the best ways to do maritime security operations.
