(Worthy News) – A surprise military exercise involving thousands of troops was launched Saturday night, simulating a sudden outbreak of fighting on the northern frontier, the Israel Defense Forces said.

The IDF said the three-day drill, dubbed “Hot Winter 2,” was aimed at “strengthening the readiness” of fighting units and the army’s logistics “for sudden events and various scenarios in the northern arena,” referring to the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon and other Iranian proxies in the region.

Some 8,000 conscripts and 5,000 reservist troops are participating in the drill, the IDF said. The reservist troops were called up specifically for the drill, the IDF said. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
