The Israel Defense1 Forces (IDF) embarked2 on a surprise wide-scale drill in the West Bank on Sunday, ordering 3,000 reserve soldiers to report to their units.
以色列国防军周日在约旦河西岸举行一场出人意料的大规模演习,下令3000名储备军人向军方报到。
Army chief Gadi Eisenkot ordered the drill, which involves overall 13,000 reserve soldiers. Out of those, 3,000 must report to their posts in the West Bank, while the remaining 10,000 were put on alert, the IDF said in a statement.
The drill, due to end on late Monday, will involve air force, intelligence and field units, and simulate different scenarios4, including response to the kidnapping of Israelis.
The drill may be associated with a recent military assessment5 that a possible wave of violence by Palestinians might break out in the West Bank, possibly by the end of March or early April, amid the deteriorating6 security situation and economic hardships the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) is facing, according to Israel's Haaretz daily.
However, the daily quoted a senior military source as saying that the decision to conduct the drill, which would simulate large-scale riots and clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces, is not officially linked to this situation assessment.
