The Indian Air Force will participate in a month-long tactical leadership programme at Egyptian Air Force Weapon School in Cairo. Three Su-30MKI aircraft, two C-17 aircraft and 57 IAF personnel, are in Cairo for the exercise that started today and ends on July 22.

The exercise will simulate various conflict scenarios. The exercise is aimed at enhancing defence cooperation between the two countries and exchange of best practices. Like the IAF, the Egyptian Air force too has a mixed inventory of Russian-origin and US-origin planes.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
