Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

IBSAMAR is a joint multinational maritime exercise conducted by the navies of India, Brazil, and South Africa [1]. The name itself is an acronym derived from the participating nations: India-Brazil-South Africa Maritime Exercise [1]. Initiated in 2008, this trilateral exercise is a key component of the IBSA Dialogue Forum, which aims to strengthen South-South cooperation and strategic relationships among these three large democracies from different continents [1]. The exercise focuses on enhancing interoperability, sharing best practices, and addressing common maritime security challenges such as piracy and smuggling. Recent editions, such as IBSAMAR VII in 2022 and IBSAMAR VIII in 2024, have involved various naval assets including frigates like INS Tarkash and INS Talwar, alongside South African and Brazilian vessels. The exercise highlights the maritime dimension of the IBSA partnership in the Indian and Atlantic Oceans.
