The IDF Home Front Command will be conducting a pre-planned overnight drill in the northern coastal city of Haifa, the military says.
“The exercise was planned in advance, as part of the 2026 training program. There is no concern about a security incident; in a real event, residents would be updated by the security forces,” the IDF says.
