Iranian and Pakistani naval forces staged a joint naval exercise near Karachi, the media reported.
The Iranian Navy's 43rd flotilla, which docked at Karachi on September 27, took part in the naval rescue and relief operation, Xinhua news agency reported.
Several exercises were carried out during the joint drill including search and rescue training, helicopter vertical reference training, telecommunication exercises using flags, lights, radiographs and the formation and combination of the surface vessels of Iran and Pakistan, according to pre-determined scenarios.
