IDF: IDF Reservists Conduct Exercises to Continue Increasing Readiness for War in Lebanon

In the last few weeks, the 146th Division and the 205th Reserve Armored Brigade conducted a division-level and brigade-level exercise that simulated ground operations in Lebanon. The exercise simulated combat scenarios in the northern arena, the rapid deployment of troops in the field, the functioning of the division and brigade’s headquarters, and the readiness of the troops to carry out an offensive.

The soldiers and commanders of the 551st Brigade fought hard in the Gaza Strip and are now operationally deployed on the Lebanese border. In parallel to their operational activities, a division-level exercise was held, led by the Ground Forces Training Center in the northern sector, that included battle procedures, validation of strike plans on the northern front, recruitment and organization of equipment, learning about Lebanon’s challenges, and operational models during the day and night in complex terrain to simulate combat in Lebanon as much as possible.

In addition, the troops exercised logistical and communications operations in depth, movement in complex terrain, advancement along mountainous routes, the activation of multi-faceted fire, and combat in a built-up, urban area.
