In June 2025, the 8th edition of Exercise Shakti, a biennial joint military exercise between India and France, was conducted from 18 June to 1 July 2025 at Camp Larzac, La Cavalerie, France. This exercise aimed to enhance interoperability and joint operational preparedness between the Indian and French armies, focusing on counter-terrorism operations in semi-urban terrain. The Indian contingent, primarily from the Jammu and Kashmir Rifles, joined forces with the 13th French Foreign Legion Demi-Brigade (13 DBLE). The exercise involved over 500 personnel from both nations, engaging in joint training, combat drills, and tactical operations. The successful conduct of Exercise Shakti 2025 underscored the deepening strategic defense partnership between India and France.
