Occupation army conducts drill simulating invasion from Jordanian border
According to Times of Israel, the army says the inspection examined the headquarters' 'emergency order of battle, and the ability to handle a sudden, large-scale, complex, multifront event,' as part of the 'implementation of lessons learned from the events of October 7.'
According to military officials, the scenario involved a simultaneous ground invasion from the Jordanian border at three points; a explosive drone attack on the Ramon Airport in southern Israel; two shooting attacks in the West Bank, with one of the cells reaching Israel's Route 6 highway; rocket fire on the north; a drone attack from Yemen on an offshore gas field; and missile fire from Iran.
Officers involved in the drill say that one of the main issues that emerged was the rate at which troops and the air force were deployed to defend the Jordanian border.
