A large scale IDF exercise of Golani infantry and two armored brigades rehearsed a northern front battle scenario during the past two weeks. The exercise was conducted over terrain that mimics what the troops would encounter in Lebanon. Infantry, armored corps, air force, combat engineer, air force and military intelligence units participated in the exercise. Noting the increased enemy activity on the northern front in recent months, Brigadier General Avi Gil told the soliders that their preparedness is crucial to carrying out a single command: "Win the war."
