(JNS.org) The IDF’s Galilee Division initiated a surprise military drill on Tuesday in preparation for a potential escalation along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon and Syria.

Hundreds of IDF Logistics Corps soldiers were called up on Sunday to participate in the spontaneous drill without advance notice, and were tasked with preparing emergency reserve supplies at military storage centers in the northern Israeli city of Carmiel.

Some 60 IDF vehicles—including trucks, tanks and armored personnel carriers—were incorporated into the exercise.
