IDF calls off joint aerial drill with US
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Israel Defense Forces says it is delaying a joint air exercise with the United States that was supposed to begin yesterday.
The military says the US requested the postponement of several days to “sort out coordination issues.” The IDF doesn’t immediately elaborate on the nature of these issues.
The aerial exercise, in which F-35 fighter jets were due to take part, received special permission from the IDF to be held despite a general ban on international drills in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
The IDF said the exercise was due to take place entirely in the air, without in-person meetings on the ground between the two militaries.
