Members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, or SCO, have held a multinational anti-terror drill called 'Peace Mission 2016' in Kyrgyzstan. The regional group coordinated national air and ground forces to thwart a hypothetical foreign invasion during the drill.
The exercise highlighted Kyrgyzstan's intelligence collection, Russian missile capabilities, and Chinese military technology. "Peace Mission 2016" is the eighth multinational drill of its kind.
