The Israeli military wraps up a joint drill with Greek and American infantry troops in Greece, the Israel Defense Forces says in a statement.
During the several-day exercise, troops of the IDF Oz Brigade — known as the commando brigade — and the Nahal Brigade’s reconnaissance battalion, held live-fire drills with their American and Greek counterparts.
The IDF says the drill focused on urban warfare, logistics amid combat, nighttime warfare, engineering operations, artillery and border defense.
“This is a significant milestone in the relationship between the armies in order to improve the ability to deal with regional threats,” the IDF says.
