The IDF’s 282nd Artillery Regiment carried out a snap drill this week, simulating war with Hezbollah, the military announces.
The military says the drill included “rapid deployment of howitzers,” and was aimed at simulating “various battle scenarios on the border with Lebanon against the Hezbollah terror group.”
The 282nd Regiment has been deployed to the northern border for the past three months, launching thousands of shells at Hezbollah targets amid the ongoing fighting, the IDF adds.
