“Motorized rifle, tank, artillery, reconnaissance and other units performed a march in a combined way along various routes, covering 200 km,” the publication says.

Aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces was also involved in the transfer of troops.

Russia began returning troops after exercises with Tajikistan and Uzbekistan on August 12.

Earlier, on the border with Afghanistan, an active phase of maneuvers was carried out with the participation of 2.5 thousand troops from three countries.

The Ministry of Defense of Tajikistan said that such anti-terrorist exercises were held for the first time in the history of military cooperation between the three states.
