India-US Special Forces Hold Joint Counter-Terrorism Exercise Tarkash
India and the United States are two big countries that are friends and want to work together.
Sometimes there are bad people who hurt others and create fear, and they are called terrorists.
To stop them, countries need very well-trained special soldiers.
India and America both have such soldiers.
These soldiers are now practicing together in India.
The joint practice is called Tarkash.
It began on July 13 and will end on August 7.
