On Sunday, Israel commenced a week-long military drill to test the alertness of its military in countering extraordinary attacks, including precise rocket firing, use of chemical weapons, and cyberattacks.
According to a statement by the Israeli army, with the involvement of the army and all government and emergency offices, the military exercise is expected to continue until Wednesday.
Local news channels have further said that the exercise will involve the participation of thousands of Israeli soldiers and civilian personnel to simulate a mass evacuation of areas in response to rocket fire.
Yoram Laredo, the head of Israel’s National Emergency Management Agency, has stated: “The first day of the exercise will be devoted to the Israel Police.”
