Watch: Belgian Malinois ‘Arisha’ skydives with Kazakhstan special forces during drill
Arisha, a Belgian Malinois serving with Kazakhstan’s special forces, was filmed parachuting from an aircraft with her handler during a training exercise over Almaty on April 24.
The footage shows the dog and her handler jumping from the plane, deploying a parachute, and descending safely to the ground. After landing, a soldier is heard saying, “Arisha, you're a hero!”
Arisha has been part of the Mountain Training Centre for three years. She regularly takes part in training exercises with the Armed Forces’ Special Operations Forces and is involved in activities such as scaling mountainous terrain alongside soldiers.
