New Delhi, April 29 Several Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) personnel performed yoga at a height of 15,000 feet in Uttarakhand's snow-capped Himalaya region ahead of the International Day of Yoga.

Sharing a video on its Twitter handle, the ITBP said that the "Himveers" performed yoga sessions under the aegis of forthcoming International Day of Yoga 2022.

On Thursday, the ITBP shared images of "Himveers of 56th Battalion" performing yoga at the Bheemli Sea Beach in Visakhapatnam, while a day ago, it posted picture of a similar session conducted at 15,000 feet in Ladakh
